+
+@itemize
+@item value / magnitude
+@item uncertainty / error
+@item unit
+@end itemize
+
+where the type of the value can be any subtype of real.  For the uncertainty,
+both absolute and relative values are possible.  Combinations of lisp symbols
+or strings are used to describe units.  User defined units including
+abbreviations and prefixes are supported.  Error propagation and unit checking
+is performed for all defined operations.")
