/**
 *  The rate expression for an SBML reaction.
 <p>
 * An object of class {@link KineticLaw} is used to describe the rate at which the
 * process defined by a given {@link Reaction} takes place.  {@link KineticLaw} has
 * subelements called 'math' (for MathML content) and 'listOfParameters'
 * (of class {@link ListOfParameters}), in addition to the attributes and
 * subelements it inherits from {@link SBase}.
 <p>
 * {@link 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
 * {@link Reaction} (see below).  It is important to keep in mind, however, that
 * the only {@link Species} identifiers that can be used in this formula are those
 * declared in the lists of reactants, products and modifiers in the
 * {@link Reaction} structure.  (In other words, before a species can be referenced
 * in the {@link KineticLaw}, it must be declared in one of those lists.)
 <p>
 * {@link KineticLaw} provides a way to define <em>local</em> parameters whose
 * identifiers can be used in the 'math' formula of that {@link KineticLaw}
 * instance.  Prior to SBML Level&nbsp;3, these parameter definitions are
 * stored inside a 'listOfParameters' subelement containing {@link Parameter}
 * objects; in SBML Level&nbsp;3, this is achieved using a specialized
 * object class called {@link LocalParameter} and the containing subelement is
 * called 'listOfLocalParameters'.  In both cases, the parameters so
 * defined are only visible within the {@link KineticLaw} (or, as of SBML
 * Level&nbsp;3 Version&nbsp;2, only visible within the parent {@link 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 {@link KineticLaw} in which it is defined.  In addition, another
 * important feature is that if such a {@link Parameter} (or in Level&nbsp;3,
 * {@link LocalParameter}) object has the same identifier as another object in the
 * scope of the enclosing {@link Model}, the definition inside the {@link KineticLaw} takes
 * precedence.  In other words, within the {@link KineticLaw}'s 'math' formula,
 * references to local parameter identifiers <strong>shadow any identical
 * global identifiers</strong>.
 <p>
 * The values of local parameters defined within {@link KineticLaw} objects cannot
 * change.  In SBML Level&nbsp;3, this quality is built into the
 * {@link LocalParameter} construct.  In Level&nbsp;2, where the same kind of
 * {@link Parameter} object class is used as for global parameters, the {@link Parameter}
 * objects' 'constant' attribute must always have a value of <code>true</code>
 * (either explicitly or left to its default value).
 <p>
 * <h2>A warning about identifier shadowing</h2>
 <p>
 * 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 {@link KineticLaw}'s local
 * parameter definition uses an identifier identical to <em>any</em> other
 * identifier defined in the model outside the {@link KineticLaw}, even if the
 * other identifier does <em>not</em> belong to a parameter type of object, the
 * local parameter's identifier takes precedence within that {@link 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.
 <p>
 * <h2>SBML Level/Version differences</h2>
 <p>
 * In SBML Level&nbsp;2 Version&nbsp;1, the SBML specification
 * included two additional attributes on {@link 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 {@link KineticLaw}
 * was to set the units of all reactions to the same set of substance
 * units, something that is better achieved by using {@link UnitDefinition} to
 * redefine <code>'substance'</code> for the whole {@link Model}.
 <p>
 * As mentioned above, in SBML Level&nbsp;2 Versions 2&ndash;4, local
 * parameters are of class {@link Parameter}.  In SBML Level&nbsp;3, the class of
 * object is {@link LocalParameter}.
 <p>
 * In SBML Level&nbsp;3 Version&nbsp;2, the scope of the {@link LocalParameter}
 * was expanded to the entire {@link Reaction}, instead of just the {@link KineticLaw}.
 * This introduced a single new restriction: an L3v2 {@link LocalParameter} may
 * not now shadow the <code>id</code> of any {@link Species} referenced by a {@link SpeciesReference}
 * in the same {@link 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 {@link Reaction} that may now reference a {@link LocalParameter}
 * defined in the same {@link Reaction}.
