si_prefix
Functions for formatting numbers according to SI standards.
Example usage:
from si_prefix import si_format
print si_format(.5)
# 500.0 m (default precision is 1)
print si_format(.01331, precision=2)
# 13.31 m
print si_format(1331, precision=2)
# 1.33 k
print si_format(1331, precision=0)
# 1 k
Changelog
- 1.0: use unicode strings and use µ (i.e.,
\N{MICRO SIGN}
) to denote
micro (not u).
- Note: switching to unicode strings is an API-breaking change and may
break code expecting a
str
return type. - See issue #4 for more details.
- 0.5: change license to 3-clause BSD
- 0.4.1: add space before unit prefix
- 0.4: add Python 3 support,
si_parse
function - 0.2: bug fixes
- 0.1: initial release
