What is the difference between precise and accurate?
Accuracy is how close to the truth and precision is how narrow the the range of uncertainty or error. For example in guessing weight, of 150 # person, an accurate guess could be 140 # +- 15 #. An inaccurate guess would be 145# +- 2#. The first guess is accurate but not precise, the second is inaccurate but more precise.
