Revision 2021

General 1) Lab reports will be submitted through gradescope as one or more pdf files. 2) Reports should use clear headings to distinguish different sections of the report. 3) Code should be commented to ensure ease of grading. 4) You are encouraged to make use of subplots to provide more concise output as appropriate.

Lab Report The lab report should be a package for the work conducted in lab. This report should describe the problem, your approach to the problem, and the results. Think of this as a narrative to the problem answers, code, and output. The lab report should allow the instructor and TA to easily follow your logic, work, and results. In particular, the following should be included:

 Overall introduction. Describe in your own words the purpose of the lab and what concepts from class are being reinforced in this lab.

 For each section/part of lab, provide the following: ◦ Heading. Provide a heading to guide the reader through your report. Headings will be

provided as part of the lab assignment and can be used here as well. ◦ Problem introduction. Describe in your own words the problem that you are trying to

solve. ◦ Description of approach. Describe in your own words the approach you took in solving the

problem. This may be as simple as a computation or a one or two sentence description. It may be more complex for more difficult and involved problems.

◦ Presentation of solution. Include your commented code or Simulink block diagrams showing your solution to the problem.

◦ Presentation and discussion of results. Include any results and discuss what they mean. ('The output plot is shown in Figure 3' is not a discussion of results—tell me what the plot means). Be sure to explicitly answer any questions included in the lab assignment.

 Overall conclusion. Provide a brief conclusion to the entire lab describing what you accomplished and learned in the process.
