The Purpose of a Stopwatch
A stopwatch is a simple yet powerful tool for measuring elapsed time from a starting point. Unlike a timer, which counts down from a specified duration, a stopwatch counts up from zero. This makes it ideal for a wide range of activities.
Common Uses:
- Sports & Fitness: Timing laps, sprints, workout intervals, or race times.
- Work & Productivity: Tracking time spent on tasks to improve focus and efficiency (e.g., using the Pomodoro Technique).
- Cooking & Hobbies: Measuring cooking times, experiment durations, or any activity where precise time measurement is needed.
- Presentations & Speeches: Keeping track of your speaking time to stay within limits.
