    Question Overloading Operators

    I'm working on a project and I need to overload some of the
    basic operators (*, /, +, -, etc...) to work with Measure, my user-
    defined class. I've managed to overload * so that Measure *
    double works (that is the double value is on the right hand of
    the binary operator), but I can't figure out how to reverse that so
    that I can get double * Measure to work.
    Does anyone have any idea how to fix this?

    On a side note, why does the server think I logged in as Strahan. I'm not Strahan, and I didn't even log in.
