Maxima Function
uforget (list)
By default, the unit package converts all units to the
seven fundamental dimensions using MKS units. This behavior can
be changed with the setunits
command. After that, the
user can restore the default behavior for a particular dimension
by means of the uforget
command:
(%i13) setunits([centigram,inch,minute]); (%o13) done (%i14) centigram*inch/minutes^2; %in cg (%o14) ------ 2 %min (%i15) uforget([cg,%in,%min]); (%o15) [false, false, false] (%i16) centigram*inch/minutes^2; 127 kg m (%o16) (-------------) (----) 1800000000000 2 s
uforget
operates on dimensions,
not units, so any unit of a particular dimension will work. The
dimension itself is also a legal argument.
