The raw count, unscaled.

Examples

iex> base_unit().name
:one

Finds the best unit for a list of counts. By default, chooses the most common unit. In case of tie, chooses the largest of the most common units.

Pass [strategy: :smallest] to always return the smallest unit in the list. Pass [strategy: :largest] to always return the largest unit in the list.

Examples

iex> best([23, 23_000, 34_000, 2_340_000]).name
:thousand

iex> best([23, 23_000, 34_000, 2_340_000, 3_450_000]).name
:million

iex> best([23, 23_000, 34_000, 2_340_000], strategy: :smallest).name
:one

iex> best([23, 23_000, 34_000, 2_340_000], strategy: :largest).name
:million

Converts a value for a specified %Unit or unit atom and converts it to the equivalent of another unit of measure.

Examples

iex> {value, unit} = convert({2500, :thousand}, :million) iex> value 2.5 iex> unit.name :million

Formats a number as a string, with a unit label.

To specify the unit, pass a tuple of {value, unit_atom} like {1_234, :million}

Examples

iex> format(45_678.9)
"45.68 K"

iex> format(45.6789)
"45.68"

iex> format({45.6789, :thousand})
"45.68 K"

iex> format({45.6789, %Benchee.Conversion.Unit{long: "Thousand", magnitude: "1_000", label: "K"}})
"45.68 K"

Formats in a more "human" way separating by units.

Examples

iex> format_human(45_678.9)
"45 K 678.90"

iex> format_human(1_000_000)
"1 M"

iex> format_human(1_001_000)
"1 M 1 K"

Scales a value representing a count in ones into a larger unit if appropriate

Examples

iex> {value, unit} = scale(4_321.09)
iex> value
4.32109
iex> unit.name
:thousand

iex> {value, unit} = scale(0.0045)
iex> value
0.0045
iex> unit.name
:one

Scales a value representing a count in ones into a specified unit

Examples

iex> scale(12345, :one)
12345.0

iex> scale(12345, :thousand)
12.345

iex> scale(12345, :billion)
1.2345e-5

iex> scale(12345, :million)
0.012345

Get a unit by its atom representation. If handed already a %Unit{} struct it just returns it.

Examples

iex> unit_for :thousand
%Benchee.Conversion.Unit{
  name:      :thousand,
  magnitude: 1_000,
  label:     "K",
  long:      "Thousand"
}

iex> unit_for(%Benchee.Conversion.Unit{
...>   name:      :thousand,
...>   magnitude: 1_000,
...>   label:     "K",
...>   long:      "Thousand"
...>})
%Benchee.Conversion.Unit{
  name:      :thousand,
  magnitude: 1_000,
  label:     "K",
  long:      "Thousand"
}
