Conversion: A module containing various functions for converting between types and quantities.

Functions

pub fn degrees_to_radians(x: Float) -> Float

Convert a value in degrees to a value measured in radians. That is, $$1 \text{ degrees } = \frac{\pi}{180} \text{ radians }$$.

Example
import gleeunit/should
import gleam_community/maths/conversion
import gleam_community/maths/elementary

pub fn example() {
  conversion.degrees_to_radians(360.)
  |> should.equal(2. *. elementary.pi())
}
pub fn float_to_int(x: Float) -> Int

The function returns the integral part of a given floating point value. That is, everything after the decimal point of a given floating point value is discarded and only the integer value before the decimal point is returned.

Example
import gleeunit/should
import gleam/option
import gleam_community/maths/conversion
import gleam_community/maths/piecewise

pub fn example() {
  conversion.float_to_int(12.0654)
  |> should.equal(12)
  
  // Note: Making the following function call is equivalent
  // but instead of returning a value of type 'Int' a value
  // of type 'Float' is returned.
  piecewise.round(12.0654, option.Some(0), option.Some(piecewise.RoundToZero))
  |> should.equal(Ok(12.0))
}
pub fn int_to_float(x: Int) -> Float

A function that produces a number of type Float from an Int.

Note: The function is equivalent to the int.to_float function in the Gleam stdlib.

Example:
import gleeunit/should
import gleam_community/maths/conversion

pub fn example() {
  conversion.int_to_float(-1)
  |> should.equal(-1.0)

  conversion.int_to_float(1)
  |> should.equal(1.0)
}
pub fn radians_to_degrees(x: Float) -> Float

Convert a value in degrees to a value measured in radians. That is, $$1 \text{ radians } = \frac{180}{\pi} \text{ degrees }$$.

Example
import gleeunit/should
import gleam_community/maths/conversion
import gleam_community/maths/elementary

pub fn example() {
  conversion.radians_to_degrees(0.0)
  |> should.equal(0.0)

  conversion.radians_to_degrees(2. *. elementary.pi())
  |> should.equal(360.)
}
