    1. Implement the circuit in Figure 3.3.9.
    2. Modify the circuit in Figure 3.3.9 by adding a second input switch and LED to the right side of the breadboard.
    3. Identify the following parts of the circuit, and give a short reason why they are used:
      1. capacitor
      2. resistor
      3. LED
    4. What are the 3 positions of the toggle switch? Which one cannot be used?
    5. Explain the configuration of a breadboard. What holes are connected? How is it powered?
    6. What components in the circuits implemented in this chapter are directional? How can you determine if you have placed the component correctly?
