Definition
正确 means 'correct, right' as a factual judgment — used for answers, statements, methods. It's the standard word for factual correctness. 不错 (bù cuò) can also mean 'correct' in some contexts, but its primary meaning is 'not bad, pretty good', so 正确 is clearer when you mean 'exactly right'.
