New to python and using giithub. Im a structural engineer in US coming form an extensive MathCAD background and API development using .NET.
In your module, can you modify so that we can distinguish units of pound force from pound mass i.e. lbf = force, lb = mass. Currently lb is used only for force which is incorrect. 1 lbf = 0.45 kg*g = 4.448 N, 1 lb = 0.45 kg.
Currently, using syntax, 1lb.to('N') = 4.448 N, instead of say 1lbf.to('N') = 4.448 N and 1*lb.to('kg') = 0.45 kg
This will help when converting calculations between US units and metric.
