Use shorter notation to work with units?

Posted 7 years ago
POSTED BY: Sascha Tayefeh

Hi Sascha,

You may want to take a quick look at my post to this discussion that shows how unit discovery can be used to create shorthand notation fairly painlessly . For example, you could use ctrl+= to define meters and centimeters or just do it by hand like so

m = Quantity[1, "Meters"];
cm =  m /100;
18 m + 20 cm // N 
(* Quantity[18.2, "Meters"] *)
