Inserting a space between the value and the symbol (ofstream overload operator and SI::to_string() function)

[sergioferrari]

Personally in the output stream (include file: ) I would insert a space between the value and the symbol of the variable so that it looks like this:

SI::kilo_gram_t mymass(3.2);
std::cout << mymass << std::endl;
// output: 3.2 kg

The same applies to overloading the to_string() function

You are right. This is even described in section 5.4.2 of the SI brochure :

The numerical value always precedes the unit and a space is always used to separate the unit from the number

Will fix it as soon as I find the time for it
