 * @class KineticLaw
 * @sbmlbrief{core} The rate expression for an SBML reaction.
 *
 * An object of class KineticLaw is used to describe the rate at which the
 * process defined by a given Reaction takes place.  KineticLaw has
 * subelements called "math" (for MathML content) and "listOfParameters"
 * (of class ListOfParameters), in addition to the attributes and
 * subelements it inherits from SBase.
 *
 * KineticLaw's "math" subelement for holding a MathML formula (required 
 * through SBML Level&nbsp;3 Version&nbsp;1, but optional as of SBML 
 * Level&nbsp;3 Version&nbsp;2) defines the
 * rate of the reaction.  The formula may refer to other entities in a
 * model as well as local parameter definitions within the scope of the
 * Reaction (see below).  It is important to keep in mind, however, that
 * the only Species identifiers that can be used in this formula are those
 * declared in the lists of reactants, products and modifiers in the
 * Reaction structure.  (In other words, before a species can be referenced
 * in the KineticLaw, it must be declared in one of those lists.)
 *
 * KineticLaw provides a way to define @em local parameters whose
 * identifiers can be used in the "math" formula of that KineticLaw
 * instance.  Prior to SBML Level&nbsp;3, these parameter definitions are
 * stored inside a "listOfParameters" subelement containing Parameter
 * objects; in SBML Level&nbsp;3, this is achieved using a specialized
 * object class called LocalParameter and the containing subelement is
 * called "listOfLocalParameters".  In both cases, the parameters so
 * defined are only visible within the KineticLaw (or, as of SBML
 * Level&nbsp;3 Version&nbsp;2, only visible within the parent Reaction); 
 * they cannot be accessed
 * outside.  A local parameter within one reaction is not visible from
 * within another reaction, nor is it visible to any other construct
 * outside of the KineticLaw in which it is defined.  In addition, another
 * important feature is that if such a Parameter (or in Level&nbsp;3,
 * LocalParameter) object has the same identifier as another object in the
 * scope of the enclosing Model, the definition inside the KineticLaw takes
 * precedence.  In other words, within the KineticLaw's "math" formula,
 * references to local parameter identifiers <strong>shadow any identical
 * global identifiers</strong>.
 *
 * The values of local parameters defined within KineticLaw objects cannot
 * change.  In SBML Level&nbsp;3, this quality is built into the
 * LocalParameter construct.  In Level&nbsp;2, where the same kind of
 * Parameter object class is used as for global parameters, the Parameter
 * objects' "constant" attribute must always have a value of @c true
 * (either explicitly or left to its default value).
 *
 * 
 * @section shadowing-warning A warning about identifier shadowing
 *
 * A common misconception is that different classes of objects (e.g.,
 * species, compartments, parameters) in SBML have different identifier
 * scopes.  They do not.  The implication is that if a KineticLaw's local
 * parameter definition uses an identifier identical to @em any other
 * identifier defined in the model outside the KineticLaw, even if the
 * other identifier does @em not belong to a parameter type of object, the
 * local parameter's identifier takes precedence within that KineticLaw's
 * "math" formula.  It is not an error in SBML for identifiers to shadow
 * each other this way, but can lead to confusing and subtle errors.
 *
 * 
 * @section version-diffs SBML Level/Version differences
 *
 * In SBML Level&nbsp;2 Version&nbsp;1, the SBML specification
 * included two additional attributes on KineticLaw called "substanceUnits"
 * and "timeUnits".  They were removed beginning with SBML Level&nbsp;2
 * Version&nbsp;2 because further research determined they introduced many
 * problems.  The most significant problem was that their use could easily
 * lead to the creation of valid models whose reactions nevertheless could
 * not be integrated into a system of equations without outside knowledge
 * for converting the quantities used.  Examination of real-life models
 * revealed that a common reason for using "substanceUnits" on KineticLaw
 * was to set the units of all reactions to the same set of substance
 * units, something that is better achieved by using UnitDefinition to
 * redefine @c "substance" for the whole Model.
 *
 * As mentioned above, in SBML Level&nbsp;2 Versions 2&ndash;4, local
 * parameters are of class Parameter.  In SBML Level&nbsp;3, the class of
 * object is LocalParameter.
 *
 * In SBML Level&nbsp;3 Version&nbsp;2, the scope of the LocalParameter
 * was expanded to the entire Reaction, instead of just the KineticLaw.  
 * This introduced a single new restriction: an L3v2 LocalParameter may 
 * not now shadow the @c id of any Species referenced by a SpeciesReference
 * in the same Reaction.  Other than that, there is no difference in any 
 * core construct.  However, packages may take advantage of this new scope by 
 * adding elements to the Reaction that may now reference a LocalParameter 
 * defined in the same Reaction.

 * @class doc_kineticlaw_units

 * @par
 * The units are calculated based on the mathematical expression in the
 * KineticLaw and the model quantities referenced by <code>&lt;ci&gt;</code>
 * elements used within that expression.  The
 * @if java KineticLaw::getDerivedUnitDefinition()@else getDerivedUnitDefinition()@endif@~
 * method returns the calculated units.
 *
 * <!---------------------------------------------------------------------- -->
 * @class doc_warning_kineticlaw_math_literals
 *
 * @warning <span class="warning">Note that it is possible the "math"
 * expression in the KineticLaw contains pure numbers or parameters with
 * undeclared units.  In those cases, it is not possible to calculate the
 * units of the overall expression without making assumptions.  LibSBML does
 * not make assumptions about the units, and
 * KineticLaw::getDerivedUnitDefinition() returns the units as far as it is
 * able to determine them.  For example, in an expression <em>X + Y</em>, if
 * <em>X</em> has unambiguously-defined units and <em>Y</em> does not, it
 * will return the units of <em>X</em>.  <strong>It is important that callers
 * also invoke the method</strong>
 * KineticLaw::containsUndeclaredUnits()<strong>to determine whether this
 * situation holds</strong>.  Callers may wish to take suitable actions in
 * those scenarios.</span>
 *
 * <!---------------------------------------------------------------------- -->
 * @class doc_note_timeunits_substanceunits
 *
 * @note The attributes "timeUnits" and "substanceUnits" are present only
 * in SBML Level&nbsp;2 Version&nbsp;1.  In SBML Level&nbsp;2
 * Version&nbsp;2, the "timeUnits" and "substanceUnits" attributes were
 * removed.  For compatibility with new versions of SBML, users are
 * cautioned to avoid these attributes.
