Özet: This paper investigates the tools and principles needed to make resistor applications easier with the help of flexible computer-based resistance calculation principles. The paper reveals that the application of circuit laws and other applications require the routine calculation of resistor values from colour codes, combination of series and parallel arrangement of resistors or in some cases apply delta-to-wye conversion or wye-to-delta conversion. This work considers the computerised design of various sources of resistances all bundled into one programme called the Resistor Companion. This programme is useful especially in the laboratory as teaching and learning aid.
