About These Units
About Centimeter
The centimeter (or centimetre) was the basic unit of distance in the former CGS (centimeter, gram, second) version of the metric system, equal to 0.01 meter. The engineering standard uses every third power of ten, such as 10e3, 10e9, 10e12, etc., and for small numbers 10e-3, 10e-6, etc. The only exception is the centimeter. "Cent" means a hundredth, or 10e-2, but the centimeter is still commonly used because it is such a convenient unit for measuring length.
About Chinese Inch
The Chinese inch, known as 'cun' in Chinese, is a traditional unit of length equal to 1/10 of a Chinese foot (chi). This ancient measurement system dates back thousands of years and is still used in traditional Chinese medicine for acupuncture point locations and herbal medicine dosing. The cun is also used in traditional crafts and construction in China and other East Asian countries.
