>>> a = M.fromStr('3.14d m/s')

>>> b = M.fromStr('2.71d m/s')

>>> a + b
5.85 +/- 0.02 m/s

>>> a - b
0.43 +/- 0.02 m/s

>>> a * b
8.51 +/- 0.69% m^2/s^2

>>> a / b
1.16 +/- 0.69%

>>> a * 2
6.28 +/- 0.32% m/s

>>> a / 2
1.57 +/- 0.32% m/s

>>> -a
-3.14 +/- 0.01 m/s

>>> a ** 2
9.86 +/- 0.64% m^2/s^2
