In the example below, "N" is used to represent the lab number for that week.

  1. Log into one of the PCs in the lab using your NetID. Be sure it is set to log on to WIN.
  2. In Windows:
    • Mount your CIFS drive. For instructions, go to How To Get Work Done then click the link for File Access under Your Own Windows Computer. Note the comments on Pundit modifying what the OIT page instructions say.
    • Start a terminal with graphics. For instructions, go to Lab:B209 and check out the Using the PCs to Run Unix Programs Remotely section for how to get connected and make sure the connection is working.
    • Start Spyder. In the Windows menu, there is a group for Anaconda3; Spyder is in that group. If the PC asks for network permissions, click cancel. If the PC asks about updating, do not update.
  3. In the terminal window (i.e. in UNIX; note the ☒ represents a space):
    • Change into your folder for EGR 103L, create a labN folder inside it, then switch into that folder:
      cd ☒ ∼/EGR103
      mkdir ☒ labN
      cd ☒ labN
    • Copy the tar file from Dr. G’s space into your lab2 folder and expand the tar file:
      wget ☒ people.duke.edu/∼mrg/EGR103/LabNFiles.tar
      tar ☒ -kxvf ☒ LabNFiles.tar
    • Make a personal copy of the lab report skeleton:
      cp ☒ -i ☒ LabNSample S20.tex ☒ labN.tex
