Preferably with the code...

Interesting question.  I prefer to avoid including units in files - bare
numbers is better.  But there is no number to match "floating" unless I spell
it out as "infinity", and wouldn't be helpful.

Certainly "K" would be preferred over "k", and given that I have "ground"
and  "floating", it is more consistent to include the "Ohm"....

These are really names, not measures of resistance.  The data sheet calls
them:
 ID_RES_FLOAT  (or sometimes ID_FLOAT)
 ID_RES_440K
 ID_RES_200K
 ID_RES_102K
 ID_GND        (or sometimes ID_RES_GND)

So using those names is defensible.

I think I'll change them all to upper case, but leave out the "Ohm".
My justification is consistency with the data sheet.

I guess I'll need to give in to this eventually :-)
