We've Got a Topic !!! Boost Units Library

I will give a presentation on the Boost Units library.

This library implements a zero runtime facility for performing dimensional analysis checking and automatic units conversion on C++ expressions. I have found this indispensable for coding scientific programs involving a variety of complex physical units. The documentation of the Boost Units library is totally complete and accurate, but totally inpenetrable. I had to spend way too much time figuring out how to use this. By attending this meeting, you're going to avoid this pain and just get the benefit of simpler programs that contain fewer bugs.

Our last meeting was hosted by Wyatt Technology and it was a huge success.

*******************************************

The meeting will be located in the conference room of GEM - Goleta Entrepreneurial Magnet. I checked it out today. It's a nice place with all the necessary technology, cool chairs :-), and a view of Goleta farmland (at least during the day). There won't be free pizza as at last month's meeting at Wyatt (which I'm disappointed I missed) but there will be free coffee!

To get to GEM, turn South (toward the beach) onto Pine from Hollister. It's a few blocks down on the left. It's located behind ATK - look for the large ATK sign and then you'll see a small GEM sign. The entrance is the second driveway. Drive all the way to the back, go around the building, and then park in the lot on the other side. The entrance we'll be using is the only door on the back of the building - it's a small back so you can't miss it.

If it's not open when you arrive, call or text me (680-9950) and I'll come down and let you in.
