Description Clifford 2012-04-21 15:22:02 UTC

Problem description: 

A wish, not a problem. It would be incredible if we could include the units with our numbers. As calc performed the calculations put in it would also take into account the units of each number and give a final unit according to the system of units desired/entered. For instance if I had an object of 100 kg multiplied by an acceleration of 9.81 m/s^2 I would get an output of 9810 N. 

Steps to reproduce:
1. ....
2. ....
3. ....

Current behavior:

Dimensional analysis is not present.

Expected behavior:

I could see this being a new cell format (like "unit formula") or something like that. I'm going to mark as Lowest priority because I think realistically it won't affect many users and it's going to be a bit tough to implement. But, we'll see what we can do.

Thanks for the suggestion
