A hydrograph describes the runoff response of a catchment or watershed to rainfall. It shows the runoff rate Q (or flow or discharge) as a function of time t resulting from a given excess rainfall (expressed as a depth P) for a storm of a specified duration. A unit hydrograph results from unit excess rainfall (e.g., P = 1 cm).
Write a function to determine whether a hydrograph is a unit hydrograph. Inputs to the function will be time t in minutes, the flow rate Q in 
, and the catchment area A in 
. Allow for a tolerance of 0.01 cm in the excess rainfall depth.
, and the catchment area A in . Allow for a tolerance of 0.01 cm in the excess rainfall depth.Solution Stats

Chris, the problem statement specifies that Area is in km2 but the test suite mention that Area is in m2.
Corrected. Thanks Dyuman.
