Propagation of uncertainty, also known as uncertainty propagation or error propagation, refers to the process of assessing how uncertainties in measurements or input variables affect the uncertainty of a derived quantity. When calculating a result based on multiple measured or estimated quantities, each of these inputs may have a certain degree of uncertainty. Understanding how these uncertainties combine is crucial in fields such as experimental physics, engineering, and statistics. ### Key Concepts 1.
