Lab 14: Instructor's Notes

The lab exercise asks the students to run some time experiments. There are a few things for you to do and consider:

• Try the experiments yourself to see how well the clock() function measures time on your system.
  • You may want to change the number of iterations that each driver spends running its tests.
  • You may want to change the sample range of n.
• Students need to graph their timing results, and it is suggested that a spreadsheet program be used for this. Make sure the students have one available to them.
