Some Rules

General Experimental Physics

  1. File names (and directories) shall never have spaces or funny characters.(Dashes - and underscores _ are ok, but & or ? or . or $ etc can lead to problems)
  2. Do not include screenshots of code. The content is not accessible or copy/paste-able. Use a link, or enter it directly in the text if need be.
  3. Make sure you either wrote the code yourself, or if you borrowed some, that you cite the original source.
  4. Red wire means positive (+V). Black means ground (0 or -V).
  5. Keep your data acquisition codes and analysis code as separate as possible. (i.e. don't put unit conversions in the Arduino script)

Specific to PHYS 37100, Fall 2024

  1. Name your PDF submissions: Lastname-Firstname-PHYS371-LabX.pdf where X is the number of the lab.
  2. Use a computer program to draw your circuit diagrams.
  3. Check that your links work before submitting. You can always use a private browsing tab to make sure that you are not logged in somewhere.
