Hi Everyone, I've been wanting a physical quantities package based on numpy for quite a while. Over the weekend I started one, pulling code from Enthoughts units package and Charles Doutriaux's python wrappers of udunits (which appears to work on windows).
I've got a page up at http://dale.chess.cornell.edu/chess-wiki/Quantities which shows how this thing works and how to get it. Its pretty capable, reducing units automatically by default, but it provides a mechanism for preserving compound units too, like J, parsec/cm^3, m^2/m^3, and reducing them on demand. I also started a unit test suite. Its pre-alpha, so dont go relying on it for production use, but I thought I would share it in case anyone is interested.
