Use pint for MetroloPy, or vice versa?

[ftessier]

@hvparks are you aware of https://github.com/hgrecco/pint? Perhaps pint could be useful in MetroloPy, towards unification of concepts, or on the flip side, MetroloPy could be leveraged in the pint project?

Pint is a Python package to define, operate and manipulate physical quantities: the product of a numerical value and a unit of measurement. It allows arithmetic operations between them and conversions from and to different units.

It is distributed with a comprehensive list of physical units, prefixes and constants. Due to its modular design, you can extend (or even rewrite!) the complete list without changing the source code. It supports a lot of numpy mathematical operations without monkey patching or wrapping numpy.
