Precision can be defined as the closeness in agreement of results during a series of repeat measurements under presumed identical conditions. These results are often expressed as a standard deviation.

Repeatability is the measurement of variation when a process is done multiple times. Precision is the means of reducing variation in a process, so the results have less variation as a whole.

However, given my definition above, the second statement could be more accurate if a better measurement was available, such as a more precise scale. Thus, truth is "correct" when you've fully ...

Do you ever have to ensure that an exact amount of time passes between two tasks in your microcontroller code? Do you know what’s the difference between precision and accuracy? Today, [Jim Mack] tells ...

If you had to choose between accuracy vs precision, which would to take? Well, if your goal is simply to hit what you’re currently shooting at, you’d take accuracy over precision. Fortunately, it ...

It’s commonly said that the great thing about standards is that there are so many of them. Of course, that’s talking about competing standards. But there’s another kind of standard that you want a lot ...
