Summary : A comprehensive (SI) units package
URL : http://tug.org/texlive/
License : LPPL 1.3
Description : Typesetting values with units requires care to ensure that the
: combined mathematical meaning of the value plus unit
: combination is clear. In particular, the SI units system lays
: down a consistent set of units with rules on how they are to be
: used. However, different countries and publishers have
: differing conventions on the exact appearance of numbers (and
: units). A number of LaTeX packages have been developed to
: provide consistent application of the various rules: SIunits,
: sistyle, unitsdef and units are the leading examples. The
: numprint package provides a large number of number-related
: functions, while dcolumn and rccol provide tools for
: typesetting tabular numbers. The siunitx package takes the best
: from the existing packages, and adds new features and a
: consistent interface. A number of new ideas have been
: incorporated, to fill gaps in the existing provision. The
: package also provides backward-compatibility with SIunits,
: sistyle, unitsdef and units. The aim is to have one package to
: handle all of the possible unit-related needs of LaTeX users.
: The package relies on LaTeX 3 support from the l3kernel and
: l3packages bundles.
