Hello
I am just getting into electronics and am doing projects with a breadboard and some LEDs. I got every thing set up for a simple "how to use an LED" project. I put the first LED in the board (with a 560 ohm resister) and it lit up. I put the second one in the same rows ( #? and #?) in line with the first and the first LED shut off. I switch the two and the first one always went out and the second one stayed on.
Then a couple of days ago I did a 555 timer project. I put the first LED in and it worked, I put the second one and they both worked then I put a third one in and it didn't come on.
So am I not understanding how a breadboard works or is it some thing else?
