summary

An open source Swift package called Physical Swift package builds on Foundation’s Measurement to give real units, dimensional algebra, and constants with uncertainties, claiming to wipe out whole classes of unit bugs and speed up heavy numeric work. It tracks sig figs tracking, converts and composes arbitrary units, interoperates with C libraries, runs array math via hardware-accelerated arrays (Accelerate), and surfaces a dimensional error traceback when calculations become “not a thing.”
