Comments for Lab #03

The lab this week asks you to run several experiments with a simple program.

What Experiments?

In the past, I've only assigned about half of the experiments for the lab exercise. But it appears that by using JUnit, the experiments are much faster, so do them all.

All of the experiments have you work with a JUnit test-case class. The lab exercise will lead you through the steps of creating this test case. Be sure to run your code for this lab as a JUnit application (not a driver application).

A few of the experiments ask you questions. Create a text file exercise03.txt in your Exercise Questions folder, just like you did for Lab #01.

Be sure to indicate exactly what question you are answering.
