# Qnty

**High-performance unit system library for Python with dimensional safety and fast unit conversions for engineering calculations.**

[![Python 3.11+](https://img.shields.io/badge/python-3.11+-blue.svg)](https://www.python.org/downloads/)
[![License: Apache-2.0](https://img.shields.io/badge/License-Apache%202.0-blue.svg)](https://opensource.org/licenses/Apache-2.0)
[![Development Status](https://img.shields.io/badge/status-beta-orange.svg)](https://pypi.org/project/qnty/)

## ⚠️ Important Disclaimer

**🚧 Work in Progress**: Qnty is currently in active development and has not been thoroughly vetted for production engineering calculations. While we strive for accuracy, this library should not be used for critical engineering applications without independent verification.

**📐 Accuracy Notice**: The authors are not responsible or liable for incorrect results, calculation errors, or any consequences arising from the use of this library. Always validate calculations independently using established engineering tools and practices.

*Use Qnty to help prevent unit errors, but always verify critical calculations through multiple methods.*

## ✨ Key Features

- **🚀 Ultra-Fast Performance**: Prime number encoding and pre-computed conversion tables
- **🛡️ Type Safety**: Compile-time dimensional analysis prevents unit errors
- **⚡ Zero-Cost Abstractions**: Optimized operations with `__slots__` and caching
- **🔗 Fluent API**: Intuitive method chaining for readable code
- **🧮 Engineering-Focused**: Built for real-world engineering calculations
- **🧬 Mathematical System**: Built-in equation solving and expression trees
- **📊 Comprehensive Testing**: 80+ tests with performance benchmarks and real engineering examples

## 🚀 Quick Start

### Installation

```bash
pip install qnty
```

### Basic Usage

```python
from qnty import Length, Pressure, Area

# Create quantities with dimensional safety
width = Length(3, "meter", "Width")
height = Length(2, "meter", "Height")

# Mathematical operations preserve dimensional integrity
area = width * height  # Automatically becomes Area quantity
print(f"Area: {area}")  # Area: 6.0 m²

# Fluent API for unit conversions
print(f"In square feet: {area.to_unit.square_foot}")  # 64.58 ft²
```

### Engineering Example

```python
from qnty import Problem, Length, Pressure, Dimensionless
from qnty.algebra import equation

class PipeDesign(Problem):
    """ASME B31.3 Pipe Wall Thickness Calculation"""

    # Known parameters (fluent API)
    P = Pressure("Design Pressure").set(90).pound_force_per_square_inch
    D = Length("Outside Diameter").set(0.84).inch
    S = Pressure("Allowable Stress").set(20000).pound_force_per_square_inch
    E = Dimensionless("Quality Factor").set(0.8).dimensionless
    Y = Dimensionless("Y Coefficient").set(0.4).dimensionless

    # Unknowns to solve
    t = Length("Pressure Design Thickness")
    P_max = Pressure("Maximum Allowable Pressure")

    # ASME equations
    t_eqn = equation(t, (P * D) / (2 * (S * E + P * Y)))
    P_max_eqn = equation(P_max, (2 * t * S * E) / (D - 2 * t * Y))

# Solve and validate
problem = PipeDesign()
problem.solve()
print(f"Required thickness: {problem.t}")
print(f"Max pressure: {problem.P_max}")
```

### Mathematical Operations

```python
from qnty import Length, Area, Force, Pressure
from qnty.algebra import sqrt

# Mathematical functions preserve dimensional correctness
area = Area(25, "square_meter")
side = sqrt(area)  # Returns Length, not Area!
print(f"Side length: {side}")  # 5.0 m

# Unit conversions with type safety
force = Force(100, "newton")
pressure_area = Area(0.01, "square_meter")
pressure = force / pressure_area  # Automatically becomes Pressure
print(f"Pressure: {pressure.to_unit.pound_force_per_square_inch}")  # 145.04 psi
```

| Operation | Qnty | Pint | **Speedup** |
|-----------|------|------|-------------|
| Mixed Unit Addition | 0.76 μs | 17.52 μs | **23.1x** |
| Complex ASME Equation | 4.07 μs | 106.17 μs | **26.1x** 🚀 |
| Type-Safe Variables | 0.98 μs | 9.65 μs | **9.8x** |
| **AVERAGE** | **1.89 μs** | **35.83 μs** | **18.9x** 🏆 |

*Run `pytest tests/test_benchmark.py -v -s` to verify on your system.*
