= Parallel =
Components are in parallel when serveral components are connected to one
source, and there is a choice between which compoenents current can flow to.
When in parallel, the current across components adds up. Loads in parallel are
known as current dividers
When loads are in parallel, the total current flowing into the componenets must
equal the total current flowing out. This is known as _Kirchoff's Current Law_

= Resistor =
A resistor is a component that introduces resistance that opposes the flow of
current.
current.
A resistor has a set relationship with voltage and current, shown below
V = I * R
== Series and parallel ==
When a resistor is in series, the values add.
When a resistor is in parallel, the resistance is the reciprocal of the sum of
the reciprocal. For example, for R1 R2 and R3,

= Series =
Components are in series if the compents occour one after another. When in
series, the Voltage across components adds.
When loads are in series, they are known as voltage dividers.
When loads are in series there cannot be any "spare" voltage, and therefore the
sum of the voltages across all components must equal the supplied voltage to
the circut. This is known as _Kirchoff's Voltage Law_
