doc_note_unassigned_unit_are_not_a_default Class Reference

Detailed Description

Note
There is an important distinction to be made between no units assigned, and assuming a value without units has any specific unit such as dimensionless. In SBML, default units are never attributed to numbers, and numbers without units are not automatically assumed to have the unit dimensionless. Please consult the relevant SBML specification document for a more in-depth explanation of this topic and the SBML unit system.
