COMP 210 Lab Handouts: Fall 2002

These labs have multiple goals, primary the following:

• Providing hands-on examples of course material with labbies available to help students.
• Showing some extensions of material covered in class.
• Providing some optional challenging material.
• Introducing and explaining DrScheme, the main tool used in this course.

Each student is assigned to a lab section. You are welcome to attend other sections, although people officially in a given section have preference should an instance of that section be overcrowded.
