Angular Signals can be combined to create computed values that automatically update when any of the dependent signals change.

Define one using computed and specifying a derivation function:

celsius = signal(0);
fahrenheit = computed(() => this.celsius.value * 9 / 5 + 32);

This example demonstrates a temperature converter. The celsius Signal holds the temperature in Celsius, and fahrenheit is a computed Signal that automatically updates its value based on the current value of celsius.

Below Angular component (Standalone) used for demonstration

import 'zone.js';
import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import { signal, computed } from '@angular/core';
import { FormsModule } from '@angular/forms';

@Component({
  imports: [FormsModule],
  selector: 'app-computed-signals',
  standalone: true,
  template: `
  <hr>
  <h1> Computed signals  </h1>
   <div>Celsius: {{ celsius() }}°C</div>
             <div>Fahrenheit: {{ fahrenheit() }}°F</div>
             <input [value]="celsius" type="number" placeholder="Enter Celsius"
             (input)="celsius.set($any($event.target).value)"
             >
  `,
})

Computed signals are not writable signals, which means You cannot directly assign values to a computed signal (fahrenheit). That is,

this.fahrenheit.set(0);
