Units of measure
Learn Units of measure in F# through a focused explanation, a dedicated topic-specific example, an engineering boundary, and a mastery check.
Units of measure is a focused F# lesson inside Functions. The example uses the construct named in the lesson directly rather than reusing a generic placeholder.
Trace the example from its inputs through Units of measure and identify the behavior that would change if that construct were removed or replaced. Pay attention to the language-specific rules shown by the syntax, because neighboring lessons intentionally exercise different mechanisms.
Topic-specific example
let values21 = [21; 22; 23]
printfn "%d" (List.sum values21) // Units of measure
For Units of measure, test one realistic boundary: empty data, invalid input, unavailable resources, lifetime/cleanup, type constraints, or concurrency timing where applicable. A successful happy path is not enough to prove the construct is used correctly.
