Measuring group size?
« on: July 09, 2019, 01:56:05 PM »
Just curious, as a relative newbie here - when folks talk about "group size", are they referring to the diameter of their group (i.e., the diameter of the smallest circle that could be drawn around all their arrows)? Or to the radius of that circle? Or to something else (for instance, the straight-line distance between the arrows farthest from each other)? Or...?

Diameter of circle that would capture all shafts within it.
