A customer asked you to explain your choice of a temperature sensor that you used for his PCB. Initially, there were two sensor options. To compare between them, you decided to test their accuracy and precision. Accuracy of a sensor is a measure of how near its reading is to the real value, the nearer the measured value to the real value the better. While precision is a measure of how widely spread the readings of a sensor are [relative to each other] when measuring the same variable, the narrower the spread the better. So, you tested the two sensors by measuring the same temperature, which was 100 C of boiling water, and you recorder the following 10 measurements of each sensor. Which Sensor has higher accuracy, and which one has higher precision.
