This project calculates the resistance of the resistor based on the colour coding given to it. It also has extensive validity checks to ensure the right input is given.
It follows the following conventions:
Colour | First Band | Second Band | Third Band | Multiplier | Tolerance |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Black | 0 | 0 | 0 | 100 | - |
Brown | 1 | 1 | 1 | 101 | - |
Red | 2 | 2 | 2 | 102 | - |
Orange | 3 | 3 | 3 | 103 | - |
Yellow | 4 | 4 | 4 | 104 | - |
Blue | 5 | 5 | 5 | 105 | - |
Violet | 6 | 6 | 6 | 106 | - |
Grey | 7 | 7 | 7 | 107 | - |
White | 8 | 8 | 8 | 108 | - |
Gold | - | - | - | - | 5% |
