But now I think it's going to become a standard tool for me. It really leveled up the conversation.

Thanks! It came up naturally: they made up sample problems as part of the review for this exam.
In looking over their problems, I was like "y'all won't be happy, because the exam is going to have some problems that are noticeably harder than your examples," so I tacked this on as another review day.

I did not. But I will! Thanks!

Next class is going to start with an assignment like "build the original circuit in three meaningfully different ways on your breadboard."

I think it's because they all built the circuit this way, which makes it pretty hard to pull out just the current through one resistor (yes, you can be clever). Do you think I'm right about where the difficulty came from?

yeah, yikes

Body, not boat. If I had a boat, I’d throw it.

Thanks! Pre-ordered!

I am likely to read it in ebook format, but eventually to buy both the ebook and the physical book. Does it make a difference which version I pre-order? That is, do ebooks count "the same" as physical books?
