Using the Up-Goer Five Test Editor:

I help people tell computers how to see how big things are. The computers do this by touching the things many times with a little stick all over. I also make sure that they tell the computers how to do this in the right way. It is important that the computers get the right answer for how big things are, so the things can be used in making other things.

What kind of things? Like things that are very big and far away in the sky, or like things you could have in your room? Touching things with a stick all over seems like a strange way to see how big a thing is.

Usually things that are used to make cars or things that fly. Sometimes things that are used to make power from wind. Any thing that is made up of many smaller things that must not be too big or too small, really.

Seeing how big things are using ways other than touching is being used more and more now. They use light to do it. It is much faster that way. But touching with a little stick is still the best way to tell how big something is.
