Everything about Unit type
Type that allows only one value
In the area of mathematical logic and computer science known as type theory, a unit type is a type that allows only one value. The carrier associated with a unit type can be any singleton set. There is an isomorphism between any two such sets, so it is customary to talk about the unit type and ignore the details of its value. One may also regard the unit type as the type of 0-tuples, i.e. the product of no types. Wikipedia →
