Hi Kristine, I don't like to sound negative, but you will learn far far
more by building the circuit and testing it with an oscilloscope than you
will by using any simulation circuit.

Most simulators can give very wrong results for many
reasons. You can spend 10 hours trying to solve a simulator problem when
10 minutes with the real circuit will answer the question of what really
happens.

Reality is the ultimate test. Simulators can be useful for some things
but they are only simulations, not the real thing. Don't get trapped into
thinking something is real because it appears on the screen of a computer.
*smile*

Good luck, Colin

I never saw the OP for this one? Where did it come from? No
references in the headers.

You can see, and learn, many things you can't *easily* set up in the
lab.

This answer (to the unlisted question) is, basically, crap. For
example, try doing a Monte-Carlo circuit analysis in the lab - call me
when you're done (sometime in 2020).
