Describe the bug
The quantulum3 Python library does not correctly segment units without numbers. It should be able to parse the unit with or without a number. When parsing a string with a unit but without a number, it returns an empty list. When parsing a string with a number and a unit but with incorrect formatting, it returns an incorrect result. The library only returns the expected result when parsing a string with the correct number and unit formatting.
To Reproduce
- Run the following code:
from quantulum3 import parser
quants = parser.parse('intake (g/day)')
print(quants)
Observe that the output is an empty list [].
- Run the following code:
quants = parser.parse('intake 2 (g/day)')
print(quants)
Observe that the output is incorrect: [Quantity(2, "Unit(name="dimensionless", entity=Entity("dimensionless"), uri=Dimensionless_quantity)")].
- Run the following code:
quants = parser.parse('intake (2 g/day)')
print(quants)
Observe that the output is as expected: [Quantity(2, "Unit(name="gram per day", entity=Entity("mass flow"), uri=None)")].
Expected behavior
The library should be able to parse units without numbers and return the correct result. In the first example, the expected output should be a quantity with the correct unit (e.g., gram per day) but without a specified number.

Additional information:
Python Version: 3.8.16
Classifier activated/ sklearn installed: Yes
OS: macOS
Device: Mac Apple M1 Pro
quantulum3 Version: 0.8.1
Additional context
This issue occurs when trying to parse units without numbers or with incorrect formatting. The library should be more flexible and robust in handling such inputs.
