From time to time, I react to a post by insisting that accuracy is
not the same thing as precision -- or sometimes that resolution is
not the same thing as precision. As someone who has been designing
instruments for over 45 years, that is a sticking point with me.
I finally got around to writing my long-promised article highlighting
the differences among accuracy, precision, and resolution. You can
find it at <http://www.tutelman.com/golf/measure/precision.php>
Warning: now that the article is there, I'm going to refer to it the
next time I react to a confusion between accuracy and precision.
Happy New Year!
