1. Enter the data for this experiment in a new

Logger pro file. Save it as Max-min gradients.
6
2. Use Column Options to set titles, units,
7
uncertainties and format points.
3. Use Graph Options to set axes, point protectors,
9
DISconnect points, error bars.

4. Use Curve fit to place best fit line of form
12
y=mx+c automatically
5. Use curve fit to place 2 more lines MANUALLY to
13
indicate maximum and minimum gradients.
14
Here, you should set the gradient and intercept
so that the line is similar to the best fit line and
16
set the increments so that you can step the line
17
to the right position (about one hundredth of
the value seems to work well) using alternately
gradient and intercept.
