Lab 9 - HCI 201

These labs are not a race. Work these questions at your own pace. It is better to be complete with each question before moving on. If you don't finish during class, that is okay, finish at home.

Each of you should do your own lab. You will get more out of it. You can get as much help as you like from me or your classmates. Labs are not to be turned in.
