codecov crates.io downloads

Rink is a unit-aware calculator. It can be used for physics and engineering calculations, as well as dimensionality analysis.

Rink supports most systems of measurements including SI, CGS, natural, international customary, US customary, UK customary, as well as historical measurements. In addition, Rink supports currency conversions.

Unique features:

  • High-precision bignum rational arithmetic
  • Detailed error messages
  • Shows SI physical quantities
  • Finds applicable SI derived units automatically
  • Helps with dimensionality analysis, such as by offering unit factorizations and finding units for quantities.
  • Open source
  • First-class support for non-absolute temperature scales

Manual

Describes (hopefully) everything you need to know to use Rink's expression language.

Web Interface: rinkcalc.app

Rink is available via a web interface in addition to the terminal-based interface. Useful for doing calculations on mobile.
