% EQ overloads the == operator for ltpda unit objects.
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
%
% DESCRIPTION: EQ overloads the == operator for ltpda unit objects.
%
%              Two units are considered equal if each has the same unit
%              components with the same exponents and prefixes. The order
%              of the units doesn't matter.
%
% CALL:        result = eq(u1,u2)
%
% INPUTS:      u1, u2     - Input objects
%
% OUTPUTS:     If the two objects are considered equal, result == true,
%              otherwise, result == false.
%
% VERSION:     $Id: eq.m,v 1.14 2011/02/18 16:48:55 ingo Exp $
