Basic Examples  (5)

Interpret quantities involving computations:

Wolfram Language code: Interpreter["ComputedQuantity"]["2m + 15 cm"]
Wolfram Language code: Interpreter["ComputedQuantity"]["(Sqrt(2)+3Pi) Celsius to F "]

Computations with data are allowed:

Wolfram Language code: Interpreter["ComputedQuantity"]["height of Mt Everest"]
Wolfram Language code: Interpreter["ComputedQuantity"]["age of The Golden Gate"]
Wolfram Language code: Interpreter["ComputedQuantity"]["how old would JFK be today?"]
Wolfram Language code: Interpreter["ComputedQuantity"][ "days to Christmas"]

Restrict and convert to a unit:

Wolfram Language code: Interpreter[Restricted["ComputedQuantity", "Grams"]]["weight of the earth"]

Restrict to a given physical quantity:

Wolfram Language code: Interpreter[Restricted["ComputedQuantity", QuantityVariable["Time"]]][{"20 km", "runtime of the longest movie"}]

Accept unitless inputs in the presence of an appropriate restriction:

Wolfram Language code: Interpreter[Restricted["ComputedQuantity", QuantityVariable["Money"]]]["8^3"]
Wolfram Language code: Interpreter[Restricted["ComputedQuantity", "Microseconds"]]["1 billion"]

Attach the unit to the interpreted number:

Wolfram Language code: Interpreter[Restricted["ComputedQuantity", "Hours"]]["2+8+4.5+6+10"]

Restrict with a bound and convert to a given unit:

Wolfram Language code: Interpreter[Restricted["ComputedQuantity", "Gallons", Quantity[2, "Liters"]]]["half a pint"]

Restrict in an interval:

Wolfram Language code: Interpreter[Restricted["ComputedQuantity", "Kilometers", {1, 1000}]]["distance from Rome to Milan"]
