I was looking at Martin Fowler's Quantity pattern earlier.

I remember writing this up as an idea for Fortran back in the early
80's, only to find a CACM paper from 1978 exploring the idea:
"Incorporation of Units into Programming Languages", Karr & Loveman, May
1978.
But it would still be a cool idea for Python. Perhaps it's already
there and I haven't noticed?
