Scientific computing with confidence using typed dimensions

1. pint

   1 10 2,460 8.5 Python

   Operate and manipulate physical quantities in Python (by hgrecco)

   Something I briefly mention in the post is pint [0] for Python, but unfortunately, I don't think dimensions can be specified via type annotations.

   At least you can check the input of functions at runtime [1].

3. numbat

   2 7 1,371 9.8 Rust

   A statically typed programming language for scientific computations with first class support for physical dimensions and units

   

   I haven't had the opportunity to use this in research yet, but i liked numbat [0], as it comes with relevant common units and lets you define your own. It appeared on HN before [1].

4. Physical

   3 1 91 2.9 Swift

   Swift package for physical quantities (by hyperjeff)

   For those coding in Swift, there is the Physical[0] package, that has the advantage of not stating units in comments where they can easily cause mischief.
