Rooms can change at short notice; if so, it is announced on Blackboard. Lab 3 (Wed 28 Oct, 09:15–15:00, F103) is mostly help in the room after a short lab lecture.

Getting the most out of it

  1. Run your do-file from the top first. Many problems disappear when the file runs in one go.
  2. Bring the smallest piece of code that shows the problem, and the error message.
  3. Say what you expected to see before you ran it. That is usually where the misunderstanding is.
