#-----------------------------------------------------------------
#
# ::units::reduce --
#
#  Reduce a string of numbers, prefixes, units, exponents into a
#  single multiplicitive factor and sorted list of primitive units.
#  For example, the unit string for "newton", which is "m-kg/s^2"
#  would reduce to the list {1000.0 gram meter / second second}
#
#  Unit String Syntax
#
#  This procedure defines a valid unit string that may
#  be reduced to primitive units, so it is reasonable to
#  document valid unit string syntax here.
#
#  A unit string consists of an optional scale factor followed
#  by zero or more subunit strings.  The scale factor must be
#  a valid floating point number.  
#
#  Subunits are separated by unit separator characters, which are 
#  " ", "-", "*", and "/".  It is not necessary to separate
#  the leading scale factor from the rest of the subunits.
#
#  The forward slash seperator "/" indicates that following
#  subunits are in the denominator.  There can be at most
#  one "/" separator.
#
#  Subunits can be floating point scale factors, but they
#  must be surrounded by valid separators.
#
#  Subunits can be valid units or abbreviations from the
#  UnitsTable.  They may include a prefix from the PrefixTable.
#  They may include a plural suffix "s" or "es".  They may
#  also include a power string "^", followed by an integer,
#  after the unit name (or plural suffix, if there is one.)
#
#  Examples of valid unit strings:  "meter", "/s", "kg-m/s^2",
#  "30second" "30 second", "30 seconds" "200*meter/20.5*second"
#
# Arguments:
#  unitString  string of units characters
#
# Results:
#  The return value is a list, the first element of which 
#  is the multiplicitive factor, and the remaining elements are
#  sorted reduced primitive units, possibly including the "/"
#  operator, which separates the numerator from the denominator.
