Read the title of the post again, dufus, I am not responsible for
your poorly developed vocabulary.
I never said you were responsible. I was telling you for your information.
I had the title clearly in mind when I composed my replies.
To measure:
"the dimensions, capacity, or amount of something ascertained by
measuring"
This is a circular definition. Where did you get it?
If that isn't "observe, and characterize" then the school you went
to needs to shoot you.
Observe.. Measure.
Characterize... determine settling time... through observation.
Doh! Gettinzeclue.
The OP still didn't say anything about observing or characterizing.
If you are reading between the lines, then you are just as guilty as I am
of jumping to conclusions.
