yo guys come discuss why this book is hard as fuck like what the fuck

>>8559684
I took a class where this was a """required""" book. Only ever used it for a few homework problems. The teacher was borderline retarded and overall the class was pretty straightforward.

Oh... well its kind of hard.

>>8559684
Because real life is hard and you need to be prepared.

for you

Circuits is never going to be easy.
Kirchoff's rule is inherently difficult for most people to approach until you understand how current.

Circuits really is something you have to be able to picture in your mind.

Wtf is so hard about kirchoff's rule? Tide goes in, tide goes out, never a miscommunication.

>>8559803
It becomes more difficult for new students as more branches of a circuit are added.

I'm sure its easy for us to understand, but for someone who only knows how to sum the equivalent resistance of parallel and series circuits, kirchoff's rule can be overwhelming at first.

Its not as easy as tide goes in tide goes out when there is a DC circuit with five branches, each with varying battery alignments and several resistors and capacitors.

>>8559803
I've reconstructed circuits in the homework that have ended up in batteries producing above 200 degrees Celsius before failure.

Circuits is tough and based on ideal bullshit. Prove me wrong.

>>8559824
That's nothing, start throwing some microprocessors, timers, diodes, transistors, LED's and memory chips into a multi layered circuit board. Then attach that board to a motherboard with even more circuits and make it display something coherent on a screen. It's a miracle we can even shitpost at all.

electric circuits by alexander and sadiku is way better.

I've read that book, which part are you finding hard? I found the node votlage method to be the most intuitive and also the most useful. Also makes it easy to keep track of signs. Learn that and everything might come together like it did for me.

>which part are you finding hard?

Eh, I guess I was kind of exaggerating. The contents themselves aren't that hard, perhaps they go a little bit too fast?

The exercises, on the other hand, holy shit. Even the examples at the end of each subsection are quite up there.
