  1. …a rather nice library, Unitful[1], which does a fairly good job there. [1]: (Julia indexes by one) https://github.com/PainterQubits/Unitful.jl
    comment by samatman · 2024-10-17 · in Arithmetic is an underrated world-modeling technology
  2. …confident that it could be done. Julia's type system is also powerful enough to express units https://github.com/PainterQubits/Unitful.jl
