I've tried and tried and just not understanding or can't muddle my way through the boost units(looks powerful though). For a start, just trying to get at the speed of light in boost/units/systems/si/codata/universal_constants.hpp

I use boost::math::constants::pi<double>() from #include "boost/math/constants/constants.hpp"
But the universals allude me; and example? where is my brain stuck?
I'm not sure. You'll need to give more details. (preferable a small /complete/ program that doesn't compile)
The following seems to work for me. (I did run into the fact that there's a missing #include
in the constants.) Ah thank you! I was only using the single header #include or with the #include before it. And I didn't know about the boost/units/io.hpp when cout'ing either. Working in a cunit; I'll make a more complete code example with tests for it and reply again.
I got going with what you showed me but learned the multiplication needs casting to long double before the math would work/compile. And division(I'll try more operations). std::cout<< boost::units::si::constants::codata::c * 2.5l<< std::endl; failed for me while std::cout<< boost::units::si::constants::codata::c * 2.5<< std::endl; works.
#include
#include #include #include<iostream> int main() { std::cout<< boost::units::si::constants::codata::c * 2.5<< std::endl; }
