Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Continuous metrics refer to measurements that can take on any value within a given range, allowing for fractional amounts. Weight and volume of a sheet of steel are examples of continuous metrics because they can be measured in infinitely divisible units (e.g., kilograms, cubic meters), unlike counts of errors or orders, or whole days of delay, which are discrete metrics.
