MetricPrefixTable Class
Definition
- Assemblies
- Codebelt.Unitify.dll
Represents a table of metric prefixes for units of measure, optimized for metric measurement standards.
Examples
Browse all decimal prefix representations of a SI unit. This example creates a MetricPrefixTable from a watt quantity, then displays both the full table showing all decimal-scaled (power-of-10) representations and an aggregate summary indicating which SI prefix scales are available for that unit value:
using System;
using Codebelt.Unitify;
namespace Unitify.Samples;
public class MetricPrefixTableExample
{
public static void Main()
{
// Create a unit: 11,745 watts (approximately 11.745 kW)
var wattUnit = UnitFactory.CreateWatt(11745);
// Create a metric prefix table to see all decimal scales
var table = new MetricPrefixTable(wattUnit);
// Display all representations from quecto to yotta
Console.WriteLine("Metric prefix representations:");
Console.WriteLine(table.ToString());
// Show aggregate summary
Console.WriteLine("\nAggregate:");
Console.WriteLine(table.ToAggregateString());
}
}
