The dimensional conversion routine takes as input a value, dimensions pair (entered in the first input box). The text is entered as: number <space> dimension. The number and dimensions individually may not contain any spaces. The dimensions can be any combination of dimensional units from the available units (see list), separate by operators {'*', '/', '^'}, and optionally a number for power.

Prefix power scales to available dimensions are:
yocto (10^-24), zepto (10^-21), atto (10^-18), femto (10^-15), pico (10^-12), nano (10^-9), micro (10^-6), milli (10^-3), centi (10^-2), deci (0.1), deka (10.0), hencto (10^2), kilo (10^3), M (10^3), mega (10^6), MM (10^6), giga (10^9), tera (10^12), peta (10^15), exa (10^18), zetta (10^21), votta (10^24)

You also enter just the target dimensional units in the second box as compatible dimensional units to the first input box dimensions.

From: 35 MMBtu/hour = 35 million Btus per hour (box 1)
To: erg/second = convert to ergs per second

From: 25 mph = 25 miles per hour
To: foot/second = convert to feet per second

From: 350 centimeter^3 = 350 cubic centimeters
To: foot^3 = convert to cubic feet

Requires Python & wxPython.
