Excerpt from A Student's Manual of a Laboratory Course in Physical Measurements: Revised Edition In truth, however, only the first two figures are known and the result should be written 2200 cc. If now greater care is taken in measuring and the diameter of the rod is found to be cm., the student is justified in keeping another figure in the value of 7: and another figure in the result, and the latter may be written 2 190 cc. Still further care in measurement might justify keeping still another figure in the result. The record should, on the other hand, show all the accuracy attained. If several succeed ing figures are known to be ciphers, they should be entered as such, although decimals. For example, if in weighing with balances sufficiently sensitive to detect milligrams the weight of a body is exactly 12 grams, it should be entered as grams.
