boozelib¶

A Python module containing a couple of functions to calculate the blood alcohol content of people.

It’s at home at https://github.com/brutus/boozelib/

Install¶

You can install it from PyPi, it is known as boozelib and has no dependencies:

pip install --user boozelib

Functions¶

The two main functions are:

boozelib.get_blood_alcohol_content(*, age: int, weight: int, height: int, sex: bool, volume: int, percent: float) → float[source]

Return the blood alcohol contents raise (per mill) for a person after a drink.

Given a drink containing volume (ml) of alcohol with the percent (vol/vol), for a person with age (years), weight (kg) and height (cm), using the formular for “female body types” if sex is true.

boozelib.get_blood_alcohol_degradation(*, age: int, weight: int, height: int, sex: bool, minutes: int = 1) → float[source]

Return the alcohol degradation (per mill) for a person over minutes.

For a person with age (years), weight (kg) and height (cm), using the formular for “female body types” if sex is true, over the given minutes.

Examples¶

>>> from boozelib import get_blood_alcohol_content
>>> get_blood_alcohol_content(
...   age=32, weight=96, height=186, sex=False, volume=500, percent=4.9
... )
0.28773587455687716
>>> get_blood_alcohol_content(
...   age=32, weight=48, height=162, sex=True, volume=500, percent=4.9
... )

>>> from boozelib import get_blood_alcohol_degradation
>>> get_blood_alcohol_degradation(
...     age=32, weight=96, height=186, sex=False, minutes=60
... )
