2014年3月21日 · As a scientist and statistician I would have to say that there is no upper limit on a “percent error”. There is only the necessary (human) judgment on whether the data is refers to can be useful or not.
Accuracy, Precision, and Percent Error - Chemistry - Socratic
Accuracy is the quality that a measurement has if it is close to some other quantity’s true value. Precision shows how much a repeated measurement will change its value. For example, if several darts were thrown at a dart board, and all hit the same spot far away from the bull’s-eye, we could say the throws were precise, but inaccurate. If the darts were thrown again, very close to the ...
