## 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
