"""
Conversion of energy units.

Available units: joule, kilojoule, megajoule, gigajoule,\
wattsecond, watthour, kilowatthour, newtonmeter, calorie_nutr,\
kilocalorie_nutr, electronvolt, britishthermalunit_it, footpound

USAGE :
-> Import this file into their respective project.
-> Use the function energy_conversion() for conversion of energy units.
-> Parameters :
-> from_type : From which type you want to convert
-> to_type : To which type you want to convert
-> value : the value which you want to convert
