Attempting to create a precision machine or product without taking accurate measurements is like trying to cook a great meal without measuring as you go along.
I love to cook and for the most part, it is a precise science…at least when you are first learning how to do it.
Unfortunately this means that you cannot simply add a pinch of this, throw in a handful of that and expect the recipe to turn out right. While there can be much creativity in cooking, when it comes to measurements, accuracy is important. Each recipe is a mathematical formula that when followed closely, results in a great dish. Without accurate measurements, the end product can range from bad to inedible.
