Or Circumference. Not an acronym like DAP, just an abbreviation.

Here are a couple more:
CC - also circumference (measured at fattest part of pumpkin, parallel to ground)
SS - Side to side
EE or BS - end to end or blossom to stem, same measurement
OTT - over the top, which is equal to CC+SS+BS
BES - blossom end split, that's a very bad day
PM - powdery mildew, another bad day
SVB - squash vine borer, bad bad bug
etc.
