Twip


A twip (short for twentieth of a point) is a very small unit of length used in digital typography and computer graphics. It equals 1/20 of a typographic point, or 1/1440 of an inch.


Key facts:



  • 1 twip = 1/20 point = 1/1440 inch โ‰ˆ 0.01764 millimeters



  • Used in software and digital layout to specify very fine measurements for text, spacing, and graphics



  • Helps achieve high precision in formatting and display, especially in word processors and graphic design programs



Twips allow for detailed control over layout and formatting beyond what whole points can provide, ensuring smooth and precise rendering on screens and printers.



Attometer


An attometer (am) is a unit of length in the metric system, equal to one-quintillionth of a meter (1 am = 10โปยนโธ meters). This unit is extremely small, even smaller than a femtometer, and is used in theoretical physics to describe distances at the quantum level, such as within particles or in advanced models of spacetime. However, attometers are rarely used in practice because most known physical structures, including subatomic particles, are still larger than this. The attometer mainly appears in scientific equations or hypotheses dealing with concepts beyond current experimental capabilities.
