Chapter 34: Experiments and "Papers"

Experiments take time to produce results.

However, the writing of the "thesis" can start in advance, and the modular, conceptual, and framework content can be put on paper first.

The paper that Link wants to write is an experimental paper, which generally consists of an introduction, a body (experimental principles, experimental materials, equipment and methods, experimental process, experimental results, analysis and discussion), conclusions and references.

The introduction outlines the reason, purpose and importance of the experiment.

Including but not limited to, what experiments are you doing? Why did you do this experiment? How is the question raised? What is the theoretical and practical basis for this? What problems have been solved, and what are the application scenarios of the experimental results? What has been done by predecessors or others? What issues remain unresolved? What can I expect from this experiment?

Finally, the final creative results of this experiment should be presented.

This part can be written in advance.

A researcher should think about the above questions before starting an experiment and have certain results.

The main part of the text is rich in content, and if you wait until the end of the experiment to start writing, you will be in a hurry and easy to miss.

Small items such as experimental principles, experimental materials, equipment, and methods can be written in advance, which can also help to sort out ideas.

In addition to the experimental data, other experimental protocols, technical routes, and operation procedures can be written in advance, or written while experimenting.

It is subject to change.

It's convenient, but it's as error-free as possible.

The experimental results cannot be written in advance, and the experimental data must be waited for to be used to decide how to deal with it, how to present it, and what results to get in the end.

It cannot be pre-set, otherwise it is easy to be biased when processing experimental data.

The analysis and discussion section is very important in order to express the significance of the experimental results.

It should reflect the confirmation, documentary and creative nature of the experiment.

This part has extremely high requirements for the theoretical foundation of the author of the "paper", which can well reflect the breadth and depth of the author's knowledge structure.

The conclusion part is generally given or written after the experiment is completed, the experimental data have been processed, and the experiment has been analyzed and discussed as a whole.

References can be written in advance, with more to delete and fewer to add.

Link's next few days were busier than ever.

I had to take classes, I had to do part-time work, I had to do experiments, and I had to write papers.

Fortunately, Link manages his time very well, and has the highest level of "brain occlusion" to help sort out his mental state, control his emotions, and avoid irritability, anxiety, gains and losses, and other problems that often occur in researchers.

Otherwise, Link's hairline would be very dangerous.

If you don't lose a lot of hair, how can you be a qualified researcher, right?

Jasmine witnessed Link's busy state on all fours, and she was also faintly worried about her future.

As she became more immersed in her studies, as she learned more and more knowledge, Jasmine's understanding of wizards became deeper and deeper, and she was no longer superficial.

She also thoroughly understood why the official wizards who were the instructors were all in a hurry, for fear of wasting even a second of their time.

The wizarding world civilization is highly developed, and the hierarchy is also very distinct, wizard apprentices, official wizards (first-level wizards to third-level wizards), sages (fourth-level wizards to sixth-level wizards), great sages (seventh-level wizards to nine-level wizards), and sages (beyond nineth).

How many wizards are crowded on this avenue to heaven, but the resources are limited, and if you want to get more resources to help you get promoted faster, you have to roll up.

How to roll it?

Conquer the heavens and worlds externally, and produce research results internally.

There are only two paths to take.

And below the sage, it is impossible to take the road of foreign conquest.

Because after the official wizard breaks away from the rules of the wizarding world, there are problems such as spell casting delays, deviations, and even backlash.

Only by promoting the sage and establishing a strong connection with the world will of the wizarding world can you use the extension of the world will of the wizarding world in the heavenly world to cast spells normally.

Therefore, the official wizards are all research maniacs, scrambling to produce research results.

What?

You say you don't want to roll, you want to lie flat?

Yes, absolutely.

It's just that you don't roll up, and after lying flat, don't blame other people who are rolling up and flying to exploit you.

At that time, not only will you not live a comfortable and comfortable life, but you will also have to be a cow and a horse for others, and become a consumable for others to be promoted.

Jasmine doesn't want to be a consumable at all.

Since she was a child, she has seen the miserable life of those inferior people in the territory who have lost their freedom and are exploited by the nobles.

She didn't want to live like that herself.

"Gotta work hard!"

Jasmine glanced at Link, who was concentrating on deleting and editing the "paper", and didn't listen to what was going on outside the window, and cheered herself up in her heart.

Even if the Lingxiao Flower wants to climb the oak tree, it has to take root in the earth and work hard to grow.

……

It seems like it's just a blink of an eye.

Link didn't notice the passage of time, it was Wednesday of the eighth week.

Later that evening, returning to the dormitory from his part-time job at the Third Botanical Garden, Link routinely performed two secondary mist and rain techniques and one growth induction technique on his group.

In the case that the seeds of Group A, Group B, Group D, and Group E showed no signs of germination, the seeds of the Silver Star Flower of Group 1 broke the ground happily and sprouted.

As for group C (normal seeds, one secondary fog and rain technique every morning, two secondary fog and rain techniques in the evening, and one catalytic operation every two days), it had already sprouted on Monday.

Link counted the data and recorded the germination time, germination time, and germination success rate of his own group.

A brief comparison of the data of group C and group C showed that when Link's germination method was used, the normal seeds in group C germinated two days earlier than the problem seeds in group C, and the success rate of germination was 8% higher, 79.2% in group C and 71.1% in group C.

Considering the sample size, if the sample is expanded, the number of germination success rate can be more accurate.

However, these two figures also have a certain validity and reliability.

At this point, Link's "thesis" was basically formed.

Because the experiments of group A, group B, group D, and group E have been done before, and many related "papers" can be found in the high-level literature database.

If the data from those documents were to be directly cited, Link would now be able to publish it with a slight modification of the "paper".

But Link decided to work slowly, preparing to wait for the experiment to be completed, collect all the data in place, and then fill the "paper" with real data and then publish it.

The devil is in the details.

Whether the numbers are true or not can sometimes be calculated.

Link didn't want to lose a big deal because of a small loss, picked up sesame seeds and lost watermelons, and ended up with a reputation for "thesis" fraud.

Once the reputation is bad, it is like water splashed on the ground, and it is basically impossible to get it back.
