AI Drawing Prompt Reference

Draw a geometric representation of measurement error with a square of side length 16, with its bottom-left corner at point A. Draw a horizontal line segment f in the middle of the square's bottom edge. Draw 16 equally spaced vertical line segments of length 0.5 along the bottom edge of the square. Draw a vertical line segment m from point B, perpendicular to line segment f. Draw a vertical line segment n from point C, perpendicular to line segment f. Draw a line segment g from point B with a length of 0.95. Draw a line segment i from point B with a length of 0.94. Draw 15 equally spaced vertical line segments of length 0.3 along the right edge of the square. Draw a rectangle to represent the measurement error, with a width of half the measured value plus or minus precision and a height of 0.1.
