DEFUNITS

Purpose:

Defines a new compound unit.

DEFUNITS("name", "expansion", "abbrev")

"name"	-	A string. The full name of the new units.
"expansion"	-	Optional. A string, a mathematical expression equivalent to the expansion of the new units. Defaults to empty (none).
"abbrev"	-	Optional. A string, the abbreviation of the new units. Defaults to name.

1 if successful, else 0.

defunits("Webers", "V*s", "Wb")

defines a new compound unit Weber with the abbreviation of Wb. Any series with units of V*s will be reduced to Webers.

W1: 1..100;setvunits("V")

W2: integ(w1)

getvunits(w2)

getvunits now returns Webers.

The expansion and abbrev arguments are optional. Defining a unit without an expansion is similar to using SETHUNITS, SETVUNITS or SETZUNITS.

Use DELUNITS to remove a defined unit.
