This is the project Wiki for the DVM IGL Project:

ON 2/5/16, please give accounts for what you have accomplished towards your personal assignments for the week.

Adarsh:I got some information on the lightest metal in the world, and realized that we needed more to compare the data. For next week I am going to show the code to my CS101 professor to help up read python and I am going to look up properties of materials

Chris:

Sophie: I got some information about conductivity and resistivity (intrinsic property of a specific material), like definitions, factors which will affect conductivity, and some related formulas. I've approached from Ohm's law and Pouillet's law to determine what we want for high-conductivity materials are those ones with low Resistance, but the assumptions were made under ideal condition (constant voltage, ideal temperature, etc), so we need more information to make materials work in realistic conditions.

Tyler: We've decided on the usage of Github Desktop for GUI access to the github. That way we have a point of access while still learning the Linux Command-Line. I will also be helping Sophie going forward to advance the conductivity research and find what we can actually measure using the code. Chris and I will be splitting up the code and going through it this weekend and communicating what we understand.
