Quantity Types: Difference between revisions

From Resonite Wiki
Changed component / node links to use "Type" category.
Changed "Base Unit" to "Default Unit" as this is technically just provided defaults. Code-wise, these are also declared as default units.

To work with various quantities, Resonite provides a generic quantity system, which allows converting between various units for a given quantity type. An example of this is converting a Distance quantity value between metric and imperial units. There are various quantity types available, which can be used with all generic quantity nodes and components. Each quantity type has a base unit, which can be used to create a quantity value, which can then be converted between all known units of the given quantity type.

Technical

The quantity system is part of the Elements.Quantity assembly. Every quantity type is a struct that implements either an IQuantity<T> or IQuantitySI<T> interface.
