I know that python packages are available for representing physical units, but I am getting frustrated trying to find them and determine which is the best.
Rather than just using conventional dimensionless numbers with implicit units, I would like to have a way to explicitly represent the units. If incompatible units are added or subtracted, I would like to have an error detected. Auto-conversions (e.g., from feet to miles) to enforce consistency before adding or subtracting are not necessary. I would even like to be able to multiply units. For example, I would like to have meters returned when I multiply meters/second by seconds. Where can I find a good package that does this? Thanks. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
