==============================================================================
==============================================================================
LAB ACTIVITIES As you work through this tutorial and the Prolog tutorial (later in the term) you will be asked to complete exercises which typically involve writing a (usually short) segment of code. Each of your answers should be reasonably documented and tested -- obviously 1 test example is seldom enough. You will be graded on the completeness of your explanations, documentation, and testing. Lab attendance is required -- lab work must be handed in at the end of the end of lab. If you are not finished you can turn in a completion of the lab no later than Friday to Andy Glover, the lab TA. Labs handed in on Friday with no work from lab will be graded but given no credit. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Lab 13, 14: Read the Prolog Tutorial Chapter:
