CSC 152: The Week beginning Dec. 4

My grades are due early on the morning of Wednesday Dec. 20. Labs and homework submitted past their due date will receive a late penalty but can be submitted until late Tuesday, Dec. 19. The later it is, the more penalty. Any special circumstances requiring a grade of incomplete should be discussed with me.
Monday:

The final for the 2:00 section is on Monday at 2:00
The final for the 3:30 section in on Wednesday at 2:00

Calculation.xls Calculate the students' homework average, lab average, test average (with a drop test). Calculate the weighted average for their overall average. Use VLOOKUP to assign a letter grade.

Use the data in KleiberData.xls to make an XY-Scatter Graph and fit it to a power law. Repeat the exercise in R and in Mathematica. (Data from http://faculty.bard.edu/belk/math314/KleiberPaper.pdf)
