+/**
+ * A unit that is the base for its dimension. It does not have to be for a base dimension, so units like the Newton and
+ * Joule are still base units.
+ * <p>
+ * {@code BaseUnit} does not have any public constructors or static factories. There are two ways to obtain
+ * {@code BaseUnit} instances.
+ * <ol>
+ * <li>The class {@link SI} in this package has constants for all of the SI base units. You can use these constants and
+ * multiply or divide them to get other units. For example:
+ *
+ * <pre>
+ * BaseUnit JOULE = SI.KILOGRAM.times(SI.METRE.toExponent(2)).dividedBy(SI.SECOND.toExponent(2));
+ * </pre>
+ *
+ * </li>
+ * <li>You can also query a unit system for a base unit using a unit dimension. The previously mentioned {@link SI}
+ * class can do this for SI and SI-derived units (including imperial and USC), but if you want to use another system,
+ * this is the way to do it. {@link StandardDimensions} contains common unit dimensions that you can use for this. Here
+ * is an example:
+ *
+ * <pre>
+ * BaseUnit JOULE = SI.SI.getBaseUnit(StandardDimensions.ENERGY);
+ * </pre>
+ *
+ * </li>
+ * </ol>
