Learn the basics of C++ Programming Extract data columns from large text files and perform algebraic computations with them. Become familiar with the materials science of batteries. Develop a recipe for the anode of Coin-Cell using three ingredients. Modify LiFePO ₄ to create a cathode with enhanced conductivity features. Understand the electrochemistry behind the Coin-Cell battery. Obtain hands-on experience in the assembly of the battery from initial materials. Complete a fully-functional, efficient battery Complete a fully-functional, efficient battery.
