Guide & Syntax Notes +* **Corner Markers:** The two "Start" corners will always be transparent (or marked with X in diagrams). If you are uncertain, check the contrast against the background. +* **Syntax vs. Math:** This encoding is purely syntactical. + * 100nF looks different than 0.1uF. + * This is intentional to preserve original formatting. +* **Toddler Proof:** You don't need to memorize the values to distinguish components; you only need to match the colors. +* **The Deviations:** + * Standard resistor bands are used for **1-8**. + * **Black** is the **Decimal Point** (instead of 0). + * **White** is **0** (instead of 9). + * **Indigo** is **9**.
