measure
Measure is a fundamental concept of mathematics. Measures provide a mathematical abstraction for common notions like mass, distance/length, area, volume, probability of events, and — after some adjustments — electrical charge. These seemingly distinct concepts are innately very similar and may, in many cases, be treated as mathematically indistinguishable. Measures are foundational in probability theory. Far-reaching generalizations of measure are widely used in quantum physics and physics in general.
The intuition behind this concept dates back to Ancient Greece, when Archimedes tried to calculate the area of a circle. But it was not until the late 19th and early 20th centuries that measure theory became a branch of mathematics. The foundations of modern measure theory were laid in the works of Émile Borel, Henri Lebesgue, Johann Radon, Constantin Carathéodory, and Maurice Fréchet, among others.

Bosch GLM 50c Bluetooth
well I have managed to use my new laser measure tonight and it is so much easier and quicker than using a tape measure and calculator to work out Sq metres. It is also small lightweight and very easy to use. I haven’t had a chance to use the Bluetooth link to the app on my phone yet.- GoneGuy

Who knew tape measures could be so complex!
It seems that every day is a school day. Marc ( @3_fall ) and a few of us were discussing tape measures today (yes we really do find these things interesting! :D). It seems that your trusty old tape measure may not be as trusty as you thought!!! It’s something most tilers take for granted...- Qwerty
