The laboratory exercises for this course are found in the laboratory manual (which you purchase from the campus bookstore or some other book seller). However, for almost all of the laboratory exercises there is also an accompanying laboratory web handout that gives the procedure (the step-by-step instructions) for the doing laboratory exercise. Links to each laboratory web handout are given below.
For each laboratory exercise, you should follow the procedure in the web handout when you perform the exercise. You should use the purchased laboratory manual primarily for reading about the background concepts of each exercise.
