Things that need to be written
- Quantitating DNA
- How to run a gel
- How to do AFM (when we learn this)
- How to analyze fluorescence experiments (when we learn this)
- How to perform gel purification
- How we ran experiments...
How to Open SPEX Data in MATLAB
- Open up MATLAB and use File->Import Data
- Navigate to the raw-text (.txt) data file and open it
- The table on the right should show eight rows, where the odd ones are the times associated with the signal from the row under them. The top set is sample 1; the next is 2, the next is 3, the bottom set is sample 4. Press "next."
- Optionally right click on "data" and rename it to whatever you want. This isn't necessary unless you're afraid of your data getting overwritten eventually when you import another set.
- Click "finish."
- Your data should be visible in the "workspace" window with the name "data" or whatever you might have renamed it to. Right click on it -> "open selection" to view it.
- To plot a single sample's data, use this, where "data" is the name of your data variable:
- <syntaxhighlight lang="matlab">plot(data(1, :), data(2, :))</syntaxhighlight>
- To plot all four samples' data on the same plot, use this:
- <syntaxhighlight lang="matlab">plot(data(1, :), data(2, :), data(3, :), data(4, :), data(5, :), data(6, :), data(7, :), data(8, :))</syntaxhighlight>
