Information conversion method and information processing apparatus

An information processing apparatus, comprising:

• a memory;
• and
• a processor coupled with the memory and the processor configured to:
• receive an input physical quantity, a value of the input physical quantity, and an output physical quantity;
• generate a first array of first conversion operations or a second array of second conversion operations by using conversion rules each for converting a value of a source physical quantity into a value of a target physical quantity, each of the first conversion operations and the second conversion operations being an operation of a conversion according to any one of the conversion rules or a reverse operation of a conversion according to any one of the conversion rules, the first array including conversion operations through which a value of the input physical quantity is converted into a value of the output physical quantity, the second array including conversion operations through which a value of the output physical quantity is converted into a value of the input physical quantity;
• and
• convert the received value of the input physical quantity into a value of the output physical quantity by using the first array or the second array.

A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium having stored therein a program that causes a computer to execute a process, the process comprising:

• receiving an input physical quantity, a value of the input physical quantity, and an output physical quantity;
• generating a first array of first conversion operations or a second array of second conversion operations by using conversion rules each for converting a value of a source physical quantity into a value of a target physical quantity, each of the first conversion operations and the second conversion operations being an operation of a conversion according to any one of the conversion rules or a reverse operation of a conversion according to any one of the conversion rules, the first array including conversion operations through which a value of the input physical quantity is converted into a value of the output physical quantity, the second array including conversion operations through which a value of the output physical quantity is converted into a value of the input physical quantity;
• and
• converting the received value of the input physical quantity into a value of the output physical quantity by using the first array or the second array.
