The labs, which are held on Wednesdays 1:35 - 4:15 in room GH301 (Section 101) and GH321 (Section 102), are an important component of this course. Each lab consists of a set of experiments and exercises. Each lab is worth a specific mark (please see the course outline for the grading scheme for the course).
