parse-unit

Parses a number and unit string, eg "20px" into [20, "px"].

var unit = require('parse-unit')

//prints [50, "gold"]
console.log( unit("50 gold") ) 

Usage

parse(str[, out])

Parses the string and its unit, returning an array containing the number and unit, separated.

"-20 foo" => [-20, "foo"]
"5.5%" => [5.5, "%"]
5 => [5, ""]
"5" => [5, ""]

This will create a new array unless you specify an array to out, which allows you to re-use arrays.
