What is a "pool"?

A pool is a contained area filled with water, designed for swimming, diving, or other water-based activities. It can be located outdoors or indoors and varies in size and shape, ranging from small residential pools to large public or competition pools. Pools are often divided into sections for different activities, such as lap swimming or leisure swimming. They are equipped with features like ladders, diving boards, and sometimes water slides. Pools are commonly used for exercise, relaxation, sports, or recreational fun.
