Purpose

This rust library is intended to do some processing of length values.
It can parse strings with different units (m, km, mi, ft, ...) and converting them into other units.

Usage

To use length, first add this to your Cargo.toml:

toml [dependencies] length = "0.2"

Next, add this to your crate:

```rust extern crate length;

use length::{Length, Unit, MetricUnit::*};

fn main() { let fivemeter = Length::newstring("5m").unwrap(); asserteq!("5m", fivemeter.tooriginalstring()); asserteq!(5.0, fivemeter.value); asserteq!(Unit::Metric(Meter), fivemeter.unit);

let fivehundred_centimeter = five_meter.to(Unit::Metric(Centimeter));
assert_eq!(500.0, fivehundred_centimer.value);
assert_eq!(Unit::Metric(Centimeter), fivehundred_centimer.unit);

// ...

} ```
