Thank you! The reason I'm asking is because I'm writing a python module to deal with unit calculations and I wanted to know if allowing fractional exponents would be worth it. Sounds like yes!
Are there any physical calculations that end up with non-integer powers on the units (e.g. square root meters). If so, what's the physical interpretation?
