The verify Function in the Natural Units Environment

Description

• 

In the Natural Units environment, the global verify function is replaced by a verify function that converts any unevaluated arithmetic operators, equalities, or inequalities to their global equivalents.  The first two arguments are tested to check whether they are valid unit names.

• 

For more information about this function, see the global verify help page.
