Methods Documentation

classmethod to_string(unit, fraction='multiline', deprecations=DeprecatedUnitAction.WARN)

Convert a unit to its string representation.

Implementation for to_string.

Parameters:

unit|Unit|

The unit to convert.

deprecations{“warn”, “silent”, “raise”, “convert”}, optional, keyword-only

Whether deprecated units should emit a warning, be handled silently or raise an error. The “convert” option replaces the deprecated unit if possible and emits a warning otherwise.

fraction{False|True|’inline’|’multiline’}, optional

Options are as follows:

• False : display unit bases with negative powers as they are (e.g., km s-1);

• ‘inline’ or True : use a single-line fraction (e.g., km / s);

• ‘multiline’ : use a multiline fraction if possible (available for the latex, console and unicode formats; e.g., $\mathrm{\frac{km}{s}}$). If not possible, use ‘inline’.

Raises:

ValueError

If fraction is not recognized.
