/**
 * \ingroup datarate
 * \brief Class for representing data rates
 *
 * Allows for natural and familiar use of data rates.  Allows construction
 * from strings, natural multiplication e.g.:
 * \code
 * DataRate x("56kbps");
 * double nBits = x*ns3::Seconds(19.2);
 * uint32_t nBytes = 20;
 * double txtime = x.CalclulateTxTime(nBytes);
 * \endcode
 * This class also supports the regular comparison operators <, >, <=, >=, ==,
 * and !=
 *
 * Conventions used:
 * "b" stands for bits, "B" for bytes (8 bits) \n
 * "k" stands for 1000, "K" also stands for 1000, "Ki" stands for 1024 \n
 * "M" stand for 1000000, "Mib" stands for 1024 kibibits, or 1048576 bits \n
 * "G" stand for 10^9, "Gib" stands for 1024 mebibits \n
 * whitespace is allowed but not required between the numeric value and units
 *
 * Supported unit strings:
 * bps, b/s, Bps, B/s \n
 * kbps, kb/s, Kbps, Kb/s, kBps, kB/s, KBps, KB/s, Kib/s, KiB/s \n
 * Mbps, Mb/s, MBps, MB/s, Mib/s, MiB/s \n
 * Gbps, Gb/s, GBps, GB/s, Gib/s, GiB/s \n
 * 
 * Examples:
 * "56kbps" = 56,000 bits/s \n
 * "128 kb/s" = 128,000 bits/s \n
 * "8Kib/s" = 1 KiB/s = 8192 bits/s \n
 * "1kB/s" = 8000 bits/s
