Units[Natural]

 eval
 evaluate at a point

Calling Sequence

 eval(expr, x = a) $\genfrac{}{}{0}{}{\mathrm{expr}}{\phantom{x=a}}\phantom{\rule[-0.0ex]{0.3em}{0.0ex}}|\phantom{\rule[-0.0ex]{0.1em}{0.0ex}}\genfrac{}{}{0}{}{\phantom{\mathrm{expr}}}{x=a}$ eval(expr, eqns)

Parameters

 expr - algebraic expression x - usually name, but may be general expression a - algebraic expression eqns - set or list of equations

Description

 • In the Natural Units environment, the eval function is overloaded to evaluate an expression after removing the units, and then combine the result with the units.
 • For other properties, see the global function eval.

Examples

 > $\mathrm{with}\left(\mathrm{Units}[\mathrm{Natural}]\right):$

The following defines velocity in terms of the acceleration_of_free_fall unit ($\mathrm{gn}$) and the variable height.

Note: In Maple 2015 and later versions, units are not surrounded by double brackets.

 > $\mathrm{velocity}≔\sqrt{2\mathrm{gn}\mathrm{height}}$
 ${\mathrm{velocity}}{≔}\sqrt{{2}}{}\sqrt{{\mathrm{height}}}{}⟦\sqrt{{\mathrm{gn}}}⟧$ (1)
