When I was in the USAF electronics school, we memorized a limrick in about 2 minutes having to do with a girl named Violet (7 on the color code). Unfortunately, it is now politically incorrect to repeat this limrick here, but that 2 minute lesson has stayed with me for over 40 years. Takes about 5 seconds to determine the value of a resistor. No need to bring up a computer program. 73, Art W6KY K1-4 s/n 1717

Win XP would not run it but it ran on my Win 98 machine.
