# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
## Very simple unit support:
## - creates variable names like 'mV' and 'kHz'
## - the value assigned to the variable corresponds to the scale prefix
## (mV = 0.001)
## - the actual units are purely cosmetic for making code clearer:
##
## x = 20*pA is identical to x = 20*1e-12
## No unicode variable names (μ,Ω) allowed until python 3
