- --= ABSTRACT ===============================================--
- -- This package provides useful parent types for derived
- -- dimensional units. That is, it makes it possible to
- -- do this:
- -- type Feet is new Integer_Unit;
- -- type Radians is new Float_Unit;
- -- Objects of type Feet can be added together, but can't be
- -- multiplied together to get a result in feet.
- -- See Dr. Dobb's Journal of Software Tools issue #127
- -- (May 1987) page 50 for a complete description of how to
- -- use this package.
