Enum BinaryPrefix

Object
Enum<BinaryPrefix>
BinaryPrefix
All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable, Comparable<BinaryPrefix>, Constable, Prefix
public enum BinaryPrefix extends Enum<BinaryPrefix> implements Prefix
Provides support for common binary prefixes to be used by units. For example: 
 import static systems.uom.unicode.CLDR.*;  // Static import (from Unicode System).
 import static javax.measure.BinaryPrefix.*; // Static import.
 import javax.measure.*;
 import systems.uom.quantity.Information; // (from Systems Quantities)
 ...
 Unit<Information> MEBIT  = MEBI(BIT);
 Unit<Information> GIBYTE = GIBI(BYTE);
You could also apply Unit.prefix: 
 ...
 Unit<Information> MEBIT  = BIT.prefix(MEBI);
 Unit<Information> GIBYTE = BYTE.prefix(GIBI);

Do not use ordinal() to obtain the numeric representation of BinaryPrefix. Use getValue() and getExponent() instead.

Implementation Requirements
This is an immutable and thread-safe enum.
