We use statistics to draw conclusions from limited data. No measurement is
exact. Every measurement you make has two types of uncertainties, *systematic*
and *random*. *Systematic* uncertainties come from faults in your assumptions or
equipment.
*Random* uncertainties are associated with unpredictable (or unforeseen at the
time) experimental conditions. These can also be due to simplifications of your
model. Here are some examples for caliper measurements:

In theory, all uncertainies could be accounted for by factoring in all physics
in your readings. In reality, there is a diminishing return on investment
for this practice. So we use some statistical insights to draw conclusions.
