Is there a reason why you use an individual type for every unit? The existing implementations of typed physical units only encode the physical dimension in types and leave the unit factors to the value level. I found this to be the most natural way. http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Physical_units _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
