All lab reports must be PDF files created with LaTeX, as described in the guidelines handout above. They may be no larger than 11 MB (Megabytes) each. Scale down any images you intend to use in your report so that the number of pixels in the horizontal direction is no more than 1024. For your notebooks, scan or photograph the pages and use LaTeX or some other software to combine them into a single PDF file. The notebook file may be no larger than 17 MB, so you may need to scale the images before combining them. Make sure your notebook images are readable! You will lose credit if the TAs cannot read what you submit.
Please include your perm number, your last name, and the assignment in the filename for everything you turn in. For example, fermi_1602177_notebook1.pdf or fermi_1602177_report1.pdf . Do not use spaces in your filenames. You may use underscores instead.
It is a good idea to compute and save the MD5 checksum of each file you submit. Use Google to find out how to do this on your computer. Upload the checksum to Gradescope as a separate text file along with each notebook or report. That way if you forget the attachment or the file is corrupted, the file can be sent later and the TA will know it was completed on time.
