Abstract: 

Basic definitions are given. Then the subject is divided into six "components", which are discussed in turn: I: Planning, design and layout. II: Management of the experiment or experiments. III: Data recording. IV: Scrutiny and editing of the data. V: Computational analysis. VI: Interpreting and reporting the results. Over-theoretical, over-mathematical teaching of the subject is criticized. The importance of practical considerations is stressed.
