The zero error (if positive) is the distance from the edge of the ruler to the point where the actual measurements begin or (if negative) is the length that has been lost - through abrasion - before the point where the measurements should start. Many meter rules are marked in centimetres. The reading uncertainty for such rules is 0.5 cm (= 5 mm).

Werner Heisenberg's (1901-1976) uncertainty principle: ∆x∙ ∆(mv) ≥ h / 4π x = uncertainty; m = mass; v = velocity To solve for ∆x... ∆x = h / 4πm∆v
To prevent fraud and uncertainty.
What's the function of meter rule
The zero error depends on the user, and the wear on the metre rule. Given that smaller rulers have about 2mm of material before the zero mark, wear is unlikely to exceed that without being noticed. The reading error is +/- 1 mm.

If the calibration starts from the edge of the stick then it is a meter rule Basically "0" starting from the edge And if it is a meter ruler ,there is like half inch of empty space before 0

Measuring anything up to a metre (meter in USA); drawing straight lines. Rule is the "proper" word for what most of us call a ruler.
