  // Measure](http://unitsofmeasure.org/ucum.html) standard:
  //
  // **Basic units (UNIT)**
  //
  // * `bit`   bit
  // * `By`    byte
  // * `s`     second
  // * `min`   minute
  // * `h`     hour
  // * `d`     day
  //
  // **Prefixes (PREFIX)**
  //
  // * `k`     kilo    (10**3)
  // * `M`     mega    (10**6)
  // * `G`     giga    (10**9)
  // * `T`     tera    (10**12)
  // * `P`     peta    (10**15)
  // * `E`     exa     (10**18)
  // * `Z`     zetta   (10**21)
  // * `Y`     yotta   (10**24)
  // * `m`     milli   (10**-3)
  // * `u`     micro   (10**-6)
  // * `n`     nano    (10**-9)
  // * `p`     pico    (10**-12)
  // * `f`     femto   (10**-15)
  // * `a`     atto    (10**-18)
  // * `z`     zepto   (10**-21)
  // * `y`     yocto   (10**-24)
  // * `Ki`    kibi    (2**10)
  // * `Mi`    mebi    (2**20)
  // * `Gi`    gibi    (2**30)
  // * `Ti`    tebi    (2**40)
  //
  // **Grammar**
  //
  // The grammar also includes these connectors:
  //
  // * `/`    division (as an infix operator, e.g. `1/s`).
  // * `.`    multiplication (as an infix operator, e.g. `GBy.d`)
  //
  // The grammar for a unit is as follows:
  //
  //     Expression = Component { "." Component } { "/" Component } ;
  //
  //     Component = ( [ PREFIX ] UNIT | "%" ) [ Annotation ]
  //               | Annotation
  //               | "1"
  //               ;
  //
  //     Annotation = "{" NAME "}" ;
  //
  // Notes:
  //
  // * `Annotation` is just a comment if it follows a `UNIT` and is
  //    equivalent to `1` if it is used alone. For examples,
  //    `{requests}/s == 1/s`, `By{transmitted}/s == By/s`.
  // * `NAME` is a sequence of non-blank printable ASCII characters not
  //    containing '{' or '}'.
  // * `1` represents dimensionless value 1, such as in `1/s`.
  // * `%` represents dimensionless value 1/100, and annotates values giving
  //    a percentage.
