NAME

Weather::Com::Units - class representing units of measure

SYNOPSIS

  #!/usr/bin/perl -w
  use Weather::Com::Finder;

  # you have to fill in your ids from weather.com here
  my $PartnerId  = 'somepartnerid';
  my $LicenseKey = 'mylicense';

  my %weatherargs = (
	'partner_id' => $PartnerId,
	'license'    => $LicenseKey,
  );

  my $weather_finder = Weather::Com::Finder->new(%weatherargs);
  
  my @locations = $weather_finder->find('Heidelberg');

  print " for this location.\n";  

DESCRIPTION

Via Weather::Com::Units one can access the units of measure that correspond to the numeric values used in its parent location object.

This class will not be updated automatically with each call to one of its methods. You need to call the units() method of the parent object again to update your object.

CONSTRUCTOR

You usually would not construct an object of this class yourself. This is implicitely done when you call the units() method of one location object.

METHODS

distance()

Returns the unit of distance used.

precipitation()

Returns the unit of precipitation used.

pressure()

Returns the unit of barometric pressure used.

speed()

Returns the unit of speed used.

temperature()

Returns the unit of temperature used.
