/**
* Most interactions with Ethereum requires integer values, which use
* the smallest magnitude unit.
*
* For example, imagine dealing with dollars and cents. Since dollars
* are divisible, non-integer values are possible, such as ``$10.77``.
* By using the smallest indivisible unit (i.e. cents), the value can
* be kept as the integer ``1077``.
*
* When receiving decimal input from the user (as a decimal string),
* the value should be converted to an integer and when showing a user
* a value, the integer value should be converted to a decimal string.
*
* This creates a clear distinction, between values to be used by code
* (integers) and values used for display logic to users (decimals).
*
* The native unit in Ethereum, //ether// is divisible to 18 decimal places,
* where each individual unit is called a //wei//.
*
