Constructor Details

#initialize(options = nil) ⇒ NonSI

Additional initialize. Some NonSI units - temperature units, celsius and farenheit - contain scaling factors in addition to multiplicative factors. These are required in order to perform conversion, e.g. kelvin => celsius and therefore become and additional attribute to NonSI units
