Formed in 2009, the Archive Team (not to be confused with the archive.org Archive-It Team) is a rogue archivist collective dedicated to saving copies of rapidly dying or deleted websites for the sake of history and digital heritage. The group is 100% composed of volunteers and interested parties, and has expanded into a large amount of related projects for saving online and digital history.
purescript-quantities
A PureScript library to represent and work with physical quantities and units. Note that this library focuses on a representation at run time as opposed to other projects which use the type system to encode physical units at compile time.
Examples
> showResult $ 2.0 .* minute ⊕ 30.0 .* second
"2.5 min"
> showResult $ (85.0 .* mile ./ hour) `convertTo` (meter ./ second)
"37.9984 m/s"
> showResult $ (10.0 .* meter ./ second) `convertTo` (kilo meter ./ hour)
"36 km/h"
> log $ showResult $ (10.0 .* joule) `convertTo` watt
Cannot convert unit 'J' (SI: 'm²·g/s²')
to unit 'W' (SI: 'm²·g/s³')
> showResult $ sin (90.0 .* degree)
"1"Calculate the time it takes to download a 2.7GB file on a 6Mbit/s connection:
> let filesize = 2.7 .* giga byte
> let speed = 6.0 .* mega bit ./ second
> showResult $ (filesize ⊘ speed) `convertTo` minute
"60 min"Calculate the oscillation period T = 2π sqrt(L/g) of a pendulum with length L = 20cm:
> let g = 9.81 .* meter ./ second .^ 2.0
> let length = 20.0 .* centi meter
> let period = scalar 2.0 ⊗ pi ⊗ sqrt (length ⊘ g)
> prettyPrint (fullSimplify period)
