Lab 2 Instructions

Monte Carlo for ECS Uncertainty

Your task in the lab: analyze two different games of “chance” (one is, one sort of is).

Lab is due on 9/22 by 9pm.

Reminder About The Rubric

For full points, make sure to check rubric (available on the Labs page of the website; Homework is similar) before finalizing submission. If unsure if something might be penalized, please ask on Ed or in class. In general, points will be taken off for:

• Missing units;
• Plots: Unlabeled axes/missing legends if needed;
• Lack of proper precision when reporting values.
