Students in CBSE schools across the country must be getting worried about completing their practical files, especially ones like me who tend to forget the way to the physics lab because I never go there (mostly). So just putting up the data her for two experiments that were among the last done in our school (and ones which quite a few people missed). Oh, and BTW, I didn’t know we had to the stacks & queues assignment stuff at school, so those who’ve been waiting for that to come up in my C++ Code Archive, please stand by until next week, when my physics and chemistry practicals will get over.
