Unit |
Describes the dimensionality and quantity name for a unit class.
Attach this attribute to unit classes to provide a human-readable quantity description
(for example "Length" or "Temperature") and the exponents of the seven SI base units
(metre, kilogram, second, ampere, kelvin, mole, candela) that define the unit's dimension.
