@Nigel, I agree 5000% with you. The way he/she asked the Q, was asking for it!
Not sure I'd go
that far
Seemed to me like the OP was probably a young foreign high-school student or such, maybe 15 or so, English not their first language. I'd assumed from India, but if their profile had once said "Phil", I'd assume Phillipines (rather than Philadelphia
). As Eric pointed out, it's probably very hard to ask such questions in a foreign language. And if there was actually some
university course anywhere where you're given something so basic as that for a final-year project, then sign me up please!
I could do with an easy qualification. So yeah, high-school still sounds far more likely.
But yes, it's certainly true that it's almost impossible to effectively help someone who doesn't explain their problem well enough. In this case,
our main problem would be that we could only guess at
why he/she found it confusing, and that we still have no idea how much they already actually know.
AND_ECE, if you're still there at all, I hope you've figured out how these circuits work by now. But if you're still confused by them, some of us would still be happy to help you, but you would first have to try to tell us what parts you don't understand, and tell us a bit about what you do and don't know?
