### go_unit_convert ()

    double
    go_unit_convert (GoUnit const *from,
                     GoUnit const *to,
                     double value);

### go_unit_define ()

    GoUnit const *
    go_unit_define (char const *symbol,
                    char const *dim,
                    double factor_to_SI);

#### Parameters

symbol | symbol name for unit. |
dim | dimension measured by unit. |
factor_to_SI | factor to convert to SI unit. |

#### Returns

the named GoUnit. If a GoUnit of that name already exists, the existing is returned. Otherwise a new one is created.

### go_unit_get ()

    GoUnit const *
    go_unit_get (GoUnitId id);

#### Parameters

id | GoUnitId for unit to query |

#### Returns

the GoUnit corresponding to `id` .
