Supplied Material
Sample file (Sample.csv) of machining data based on a nominal valve seat diameter of
24mm, a minimum valve seat diameter of 23.980mm and maximum valve seat diameter
of 24.020mm. The files to be analysed by this program will be in a two-column format
listing valve seat number and measured diameter.
Deliverables
Each student is to submit only a single m-file code named ValveSeat[StudentNumber].m
e.g. For John Smith, student number 0701234A, the code would be named ValveSeat0701234A.m
(If file extensions are not shown on the computer used for development the file must be
named ValveSeat0701234A otherwise the code will not run. Please clarify whether this
is the case with one of the tutors or Mr Paton)
Each code must contain an opening comment with the student name and student number
as well as the date of finalization of the code
Codes are to be submitted via the Ignite system under the MatLab Project item. Any code
received not following the outlined naming convention and submission instructions
will not be marked and a mark of 0 will be awarded for the project. Each student
may submit only 1 code.
Consultation Process
Consultation for the project will be at the following times. e-mail correspondence for consultative purposes will be limited and, in general, any unsolicited correspondence will result
in penalties against the project mark.

being given to the next waiting student.
