Description

• 

Loading a package, using the with command, makes the short form of its commands available. Loading the Units package additionally loads one of its three subpackages, corresponding to the currently selected mode (by default the Units:-Simple subpackage). This enables one of the three units environments - the simple, standard, or natural units environment. If you want to access the short form of the commands in the Units package, but stay in the default units environment rather than the simple, standard, or natural units environments, then you can load the Units:-CommandsOnly package.

Examples

Without loading any package, you can use the long form of Units package commands.
