Uses of Unit in javax.measure

Methods in javax.measure that return Unit

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
Unit<Q>	Unit.alternate(String symbol) Returns a system unit equivalent to this unscaled standard unit but used in expressions to distinguish between quantities of a different nature but of the same dimensions.
<T extends Quantity<T>> Unit<T>	Unit.asType(Class<T> type) Casts this unit to a parameterized unit of specified nature or throw a ClassCastException if the dimension of the specified quantity and this unit's dimension do not match.
Unit<Q>	Unit.divide(double divisor) Returns the result of dividing this unit by an approximate divisor.
Unit<?>	Unit.divide(Unit<?> divisor) Returns the quotient of this unit with the one specified.
Unit<Q>	Unit.getSystemUnit() Returns the unscaled system unit from which this unit is derived.
Unit<Q>	Quantity.getUnit() Returns the unit of this Quantity.
Unit<?>	Unit.inverse() Returns the inverse of this unit.
Unit<Q>	Unit.multiply(double multiplier) Returns the result of multiplying this unit by the specified factor.
Unit<?>	Unit.multiply(Unit<?> multiplier) Returns the product of this unit with the one specified.
Unit<?>	Unit.pow(int n) Returns a unit equals to this unit raised to an exponent.
Unit<?>	Unit.root(int n) Returns a unit equals to the given root of this unit.
Unit<Q>	Unit.shift(double offset) Returns the result of setting the origin of the scale of measurement to the given value.
Unit<Q>	Unit.transform(UnitConverter operation) Returns the unit derived from this unit using the specified converter.

Methods in javax.measure that return types with arguments of type Unit

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
Map<? extends Unit<?>,Integer>	Unit.getBaseUnits() Returns the base units and their exponent whose product is this unit, or null if this unit is a base unit (not a product of existing units).

Methods in javax.measure with parameters of type Unit

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
Unit<?>	Unit.divide(Unit<?> divisor) Returns the quotient of this unit with the one specified.
UnitConverter	Unit.getConverterTo(Unit<Q> that) Returns a converter of numeric values from this unit to another unit of same type.
UnitConverter	Unit.getConverterToAny(Unit<?> that) Returns a converter from this unit to the specified unit of type unknown.
boolean	Unit.isCompatible(Unit<?> that) Indicates if this unit is compatible with the unit specified.
Unit<?>	Unit.multiply(Unit<?> multiplier) Returns the product of this unit with the one specified.
Quantity<Q>	Quantity.to(Unit<Q> unit) Returns this Quantity converted into another (compatible) Unit.
