\section{Conclusion}  After performing the Johnson Noise Experiment and the Shot Noise Experiment, our measurements are very precise and accurate. We were able to get a Boltmann Contant of $1.46 \cdot 10^{-23} \textrm{ m}^2 \textrm{ kg} \textrm{ s}^{-2} \textrm{ K}^{-1}$ compared to the accepted value of the Boltzmann Consant: $1.38064852 \cdot 10^{-23} \textrm{ m}^2 \textrm{ kg} \textrm{ s}^{-2} \textrm{ K}^{-1}$.For Johnson Noise, we were able to find the mass of the election within $2.4\%$ of the accepted value.  If we were to redo the Johnson Noise experiment, it would be helpful to vary the temperature and to vary the $R_{in}$ more times. I believe doing this experiment more times with different variations would provide a more accurate spread of data.  We were able to find the charge of electron to be: $1.64 \cdot 10^{-19}$ coulombs. This is less than $2.4 \%$ different from the accepted value of the charge of an electron: $1.60217662 \cdot 10^{ -19} \textrm{ coulombs}$.
