What does caliber measure?

Caliber denotes the internal diameter of a gun barrel or expresses barrel length as multiples of that bore diameter.

Is rope a standardized unit of length?

No, rope is an informal unit describing rope length and varies depending on context and region.

Why convert caliber to rope length?
