  Description     : Pyton package for handling numpy arrays with units.

Often writing code that deals with data that has units can be confusing.
A function might return an array but at least with plain NumPy arrays,
there is no way to easily tell what the units of the data are without
somehow knowing a priori.

The unyt package (pronounced like “unit”) provides a subclass of NumPy’s
ndarray class that knows about units.

It is a new build dependency of the "yt" package. I will maintain it
within the Debian Python team. Salsa dir is

Best regards

Ole
