 **SesamX embeds predefined physical quantities, each of them carries a unit that you are free to define**. On input, each SesamX keyword is related to a physical quantity which provides the unit used to understand the numerical data. And this manual gives the physical quantity related to each keyword next to its description, as explained in the [[user_manual:sesamx:functions_description:|introduction]]. **SesamX embeds predefined physical quantities, each of them carries a unit that you are free to define**.
