Description

check-convert-list.py is a small analysis program, written in the Python programming language. Its purpose is to detect name conflicts in the CONVERT function, so that the final CONVERT function's definition will be a good one. This program enumerates the list of all possible units (all unit names with all possible prefixes, including the empty prefix) to see if there are any duplicates, and then reports the duplicates. This program is useful when proposing the addition of units or prefixes to CONVERT.
