Deep dive, for sure. I suspect Cliff Stoll is enjoying this site.
I played with creating a logarithmic slider thing [1] in Javascript that I hoped I could package up as a kind of "widget" people could use on their web pages. But I don't really know Javascript that well—or rather how to make an API out of a Javascript thing.
Anyway, to test it I tried to make an Ohm's Law calculator [2].
I would love to see a site like the one in this post have some kind of interactive slide rule on the web page itself.
It works well enough to get the idea of "set the voltage, set the resistance, read the current off the voltage scale above the 1 on the resistance scale". It might be a little easier to do if the rules were closer, which would probably require a little noodling about with the code to make the "resistance" box sit below the rule scale.
