195 make a quantity from a string or from a numeric value and a unit string
197 Description:
200 quantity makes a quantity from a string, or from a value and a
201 string. Note that a function unit exists which is a synonym for
202 quantity. If only a string is given, it can be a scalar string.
203 The result will be a scalar quantity.
206 If a numeric value and a unit string
207 are given, the numeric value can be any numeric type, and can also be
208 a vector of numeric values. print qa.map() to get a list of recognized units.
209 'd' is usually days, but can be degrees (see example).
211 The keepshape input parameter is only relevant if v is a multi-dimensional array.
212 In this case, if true, the output value array will have the same shape as v. If false,
213 a one-dimensional array is returned with length equal to the number of elements in
214 v. The default value is false in order to preserve backward compatibility with
215 previous versions.
217 Input Parameters:
218 v quantity or numeric or string to convert to quantity
219 unitname unit string if v numeric
220 keepshape Only used if input parameter v is a multi-dimensional array. Output array will have the same shape as v.

745 time converts a time quantity to a formatted string. The formatting
746 information is a precision (0 is default, 6 includes hh.mm.ss) and a
747 string array of codes (no-case, minimax match):
748 Codes include:
749 begin{description}
750 item[clean] delete leading/trailing superfluous separators
751 item[no_d] do not show hours part
752 item[no_dm] do not show hours and minutes part
753 item[ymd] include a date as yyyy/mm/dd (date is by default not shown)
754 item[dmy] include a date as ddMMMyyyy (date is by default not shown)
755 item[mjd] include a date as Modified Julian Day (date is by default not shown)
756 item[fits] include a date and show time in FITS format: le from OS
757 item[angle] show in angle (dd.mm.ss.ttt) rather than time format
758 item[day] prefix day-of-week to output
759 item[local] show local time rather than UTC (add timezone offset)
760 item[no_time] suppress printing of time part
761 end{description}
762 If a multi-dimensional value is given for the value $v$, the returned value
763 is a string vector of a length equal to last dimension. Each string has a
764 number of fields equal to the number of elements in all earlier
765 dimensions. If the {em showform} is $T$, each vector element is surrounded
766 by a pair of square brackets if there is more than one entry, and fields are
767 separated by a ','.
769 Input Parameters:
770 v time quantity value to output
771 prec number of digits shown
772 form formatting information in coded string array
773 showform show square brackets and separating ,
