 * @class Delay
 * @sbmlbrief{core} A delay on the time of execution of an SBML <em>event</em>.
 *
 * An Event object defines when the event can occur, the variables that
 * are affected by the event, and how the variables are affected.  The
 * effect of the event can optionally be delayed after the occurrence of
 * the condition which invokes it.  An event delay is defined using an
 * object of class Delay.
 *
 * The object class Delay is derived from SBase and adds a single
 * subelement called "math".  This subelement is used to hold MathML
 * content.  The mathematical formula represented by "math" must evaluate
 * to a numerical value.  It is used as the length of time between when the
 * event is @em triggered and when the event's assignments are
 * actually @em executed.  If no delay is present on a given Event, a time
 * delay of zero is assumed.
 *
 * The expression in "math" must be evaluated at the time the event is @em
 * triggered.  The expression must always evaluate to a nonnegative number
 * (otherwise, a nonsensical situation could arise where an event is
 * defined to execute before it is triggered!).
 *
 * @section delay-units The units of the mathematical expression in a Delay
 *
 * In SBML Level&nbsp;2 versions before Version&nbsp;4, the units of the
 * numerical value computed by the Delay's "math" expression are @em
 * required to be in units of time, or the model is considered to have a
 * unit consistency error.  In Level&nbsp;2 Version&nbsp;4 as well as SBML
 * Level&nbsp;3, this requirement is relaxed; these
 * specifications only stipulate that the units of the numerical value
 * computed by a Delay instance's "math" expression @em should match the
 * model's units of time (meaning the definition of the @c time units in
 * the model).  LibSBML respects these requirements, and depending on
 * whether an earlier Version of SBML Level&nbsp;2 is in use, libSBML may
 * or may not flag unit inconsistencies as errors or merely warnings.
 *
 * Note that <em>units are not predefined or assumed</em> for the contents
 * of "math" in a Delay object; rather, they must be defined explicitly for
 * each instance of a Delay object in a model.  This is an important point
 * to bear in mind when literal numbers are used in delay expressions.  For
 * example, the following Event instance would result in a warning logged
 * by SBMLDocument::checkConsistency() about the fact that libSBML cannot
 * verify the consistency of the units of the expression.  The reason is
 * that the formula inside the "math" element does not have any declared
 * units, whereas what is expected in this context is units of time:
 * @verbatim
<model>
    ...
    <listOfEvents>
        <event useValuesFromTriggerTime="true">
            ...
            <delay>
                <math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML">
                    <cn> 1 </cn>
                </math>
            </delay>
            ...
        </event>
    </listOfEvents>
    ...
</model>
@endverbatim
 * 
 * The <code>&lt;cn&gt; 1 &lt;/cn&gt;</code> within the mathematical formula
 * of the @c delay above has <em>no units declared</em>.  To make the
 * expression have the needed units of time, literal numbers should be
 * avoided in favor of defining Parameter objects for each quantity, and
 * declaring units for the Parameter values.  The following fragment of
 * SBML illustrates this approach:
 * @verbatim
<model>
    ...
    <listOfParameters>
        <parameter id="transcriptionDelay" value="10" units="second"/>
    </listOfParameters>
    ...
    <listOfEvents>
        <event useValuesFromTriggerTime="true">
            ...
            <delay>
                <math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML">
                    <ci> transcriptionDelay </ci>
                </math>
            </delay>
            ...
        </event>
    </listOfEvents>
    ...
</model>
@endverbatim
 *
 * In SBML Level&nbsp;3, an alternative approach is available in the form
 * of the @c units attribute, which SBML Level&nbsp;3 allows to appear on
 * MathML @c cn elements.  The value of this attribute can be used to
 * indicate the unit of measurement to be associated with the number in the
 * content of a @c cn element.  The attribute is named @c units but,
 * because it appears inside MathML element (which is in the XML namespace
 * for MathML and not the namespace for SBML), it must always be prefixed
 * with an XML namespace prefix for an SBML Level&nbsp;3
 * namespace.  The following is an example of this approach:
 * @verbatim
<model timeUnits="second" ...>
    ...
    <listOfEvents>
        <event useValuesFromTriggerTime="true">
            ...
            <delay>
                <math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"
                      xmlns:sbml="http://www.sbml.org/sbml/level3/version1/core">
                    <cn sbml:units="second"> 10 </cn>
                </math>
            </delay>
            ...
        </event>
    </listOfEvents>
    ...
</model>
@endverbatim
 *
 * @section delay-restrictions Restrictions relaxed in SBML Level&nbsp;3 Version&nbsp;2
 * 
 * In SBML Level&nbsp;3 Version&nbsp;2, the requirement that a Delay
 * have a "math" subelement was relaxed, making it optional.  In
 * this case, the Delay remains undefined, and unless that information
 * is provided in some other form (such as with an SBML Level&nbsp;3
 * package), the Event behaves as if it had no Delay.

 * @class doc_delay_units
 *
 * @par
 * Delay elements in SBML express a time delay for an Event.  Beginning
 * with SBML Level&nbsp;2 Version&nbsp;2, the units of that time are
 * calculated based on the mathematical expression and the model quantities
 * referenced by <code>&lt;ci&gt;</code> elements used within that
 * expression.  (In SBML Level&nbsp;2 Version&nbsp;1, there exists an
 * attribute on Event called "timeUnits".  This attribute can be used to set
 * the units of the Delay expression explicitly.)  The method
 * Delay::getDerivedUnitDefinition() returns what libSBML computes the units
 * to be, to the extent that libSBML can compute them.
 *
 *
 * @class doc_warning_delay_math_literals
 *
 * @warning <span class="warning">Note that it is possible the "math"
 * expression in the Delay contains literal 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
 * Delay::getDerivedUnitDefinition() only 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>.  When using this method, <strong>it
 * is critical that callers also invoke the method</strong>
 * Delay::containsUndeclaredUnits() <strong>to determine whether this
 * situation holds</strong>.  Callers should take suitable action in those
 * situations.</span>
