I should perhaps have put:


   type Dimensionality is array (Dimension) of root_real;


and there would then be a need for functions such as:


   function Log (U: in Unit_Type) return Unit_Type;

   function Log (U: in Unit_Type;
                 Base: in univ_real) return Unit_Type;

   function Exp (U: in Unit_Type) return Unit_Type;

   function "**" (Left:  in Unit_Type;
                  Right: in univ_real) return Unit_Type;


Can't get everything right first go! :-)
