Quick Example
import lox_space as lox
# Use unit constants for readable code
angle = 45 * lox.deg
distance = 100 * lox.km
frequency = 2.4 * lox.ghz
velocity = 7.8 * lox.kms
# Convert to float
angle_rad = float(angle)
distance_m = float(distance)
Angle type for type-safe angular values.
Use with unit constants: 45 * lox.deg or 1.5 * lox.rad
Convert to float with float(angle).
Distance type for type-safe length values.
Use with unit constants: 100 * lox.km or 1.5 * lox.au
Convert to float with float(distance).
Frequency type for type-safe frequency values.
Use with unit constants: 2.4 * lox.ghz or 100 * lox.mhz
Convert to float with float(frequency).
Velocity type for type-safe speed values.
Use with unit constants: 7.8 * lox.kms or 100 * lox.ms
Convert to float with float(velocity).
