/// \file
/// \brief Compile time operators and typeof helper classes.
/// \details
///   These operators declare the compile-time operators needed to support dimensional
///   analysis algebra.  They require the use of Boost.Typeof, emulation or native.
///   Typeof helper classes define result type for heterogeneous operators on value types.
///   These must be defined through specialization for powers and roots.
