I received data for data analysis for my Bachelor-Thesis. I still got 4 weeks left to finish the 40 pages and after having gotten all my results, my supervisor and I realized that the data that I received had a conversion factor error (we don't even know about the magnitude of this factor-is it 3/4 times higher? etc). Anyways, I wanted to mention this issue in my thesis but I am not sure 1) where to mention it - methods? results? and...2)how to talk about it? Thank you all!
