This has to be a different meaning in different country thing.  I n all 
school, college and military classes I have taken the word EXACT  means 
right on no variance one way or the other.  To my knowledge engineering 
is supposed to be an "exact science". Not a half way thing of "that 
looks close enough".

for an example here is the reason  this is "ABOUT" and not "EXACTLY"

The error factor is .18 per HR. 4.32 per day,  30.24 per week.
Thats about and not exactly in my line of  thinking.

I do not have  to be that exact.  The only reason I am writing this  is  
clarify the difference between about and exact.
