No new lab exercises this week. You should use this time to work on the assignment.

What should I be doing with the assignment?

You need to submit the first part of Assignment 2 on Thursday.  This is not graded and you will not lose marks if you don't submit or submit something incomplete.  However, feedback on what you have done so far will be really helpful in improving your final submission, so the more you submit this week, the easier you are making it for you to do well in the assessed part.
