Assignment for EES 3310/5310 Lab #3

There are two files for this lab.

1. Start by reading lab_03-instructions.pdf, which describes things you need to know for this lab (about the R functions for working with the MODTRAN model and the data that it produces, as well as some useful R functions that we will use in procesing and graphing data for this lab.)

This file also has the exercises you will do for this lab.

This repository includes both printable instructions in PDF format (lab-03-instructions.pdf) and a version that you can read online on GitHub (lab-03-instructions.md).

2. When you come to lab, you will work through the exercises, and you will edit the file lab-03-report.Rmd to write your answers and show your work.

Instructions:

• Accept this assignment in GitHub Classroom.
• Clone a local copy of the file repository from github to your own computer.
• In your local repository, answer the exercises in the template lab-03-report.Rmd.
• When you are done, knit your .Rmd files into PDF files.
• Use git to stage your changed files (including the edits to the .Rmd files and the new Word or PDF files) and then commit the changes to your local git repository. Alternatively, you can use github desktop to do this step.
• Push the changes from your local git repository to github.

I advise using git to commit changes frequently as you work and push those commits to GitHub.

I also advise knitting your answers frequently to make sure that they knit correctly.

Remember that to turn in the assignment you need to:

1. Successfully knit lab-03-report.Rmd into a .pdf or Word (.docx) file.
2. Stage your .Rmd (rmarkdown) document and the .pdf or .docx.
3. Commit the changes to these files into your local git repository on your computer.
4. Push your local repository to GitHub, so we can see your final results.

The last version of your work that you have pushed by the deadline is what will be graded. You will lose a lot of points if there is not a .pdf or .docx file with results.
