Throughout this book, we will be building many electrical circuits, and we will do this using an electronic breadboard. In the initial chapters, I will present many of the circuits with both a breadboard layout similar to that illustrated toward the end of this section in Figure 2.7 and with a schematic diagram as shown in Figure 2.8.
As we progress through this book and you gain more experience building breadboard circuits, I will cease with the breadboard layouts for the simpler circuits; however, I will still present them for the more complex circuits so you have something to compare your builds against.
Please note that the proceeding circuit examples and discussions are only brief. At this stage of this book, we intend to build a simple electronic circuit that will be the basis for our Python examples in this chapter and Chapter 3, Networking with RESTful APIs and Web Sockets Using Flask, and Chapter...
