Especially as the errors are on basic physics and electronic theory. I would be happy to help out with correcting it, but it is not in public domain so it is hard to do. The most obvious one is on page 30, where Ohms law is misused. They totally neglect the voltage-drop over the LED, which at this voltage levels is a big error.
The calculations are thus wrong, and the conclusions in error. All through Project 01 the concepts of voltage, current, power and energy are mixed up. The definitions of current and voltage on page 21 are wrong. The explanation of a resistor on page 25 and how it affects the light from a LED is wrong. In addition there are lots of smaller things, such as that sensors convert energy into electrical energy, which very few of the sensors we use today actually does. I just plain cannot read the book due to the color of the text.
I must use a magnifying glass which is quite cumbersome. Has anyone found a free downlaod since I've already paid for the book within the kit. Old people need love and darker text too! One of my pet peeves is textbooks with errors in them. I'm less concerned by typos than I am by statements that are just wrong.
And there are far too many out there like that. Sad to hear that the project book for the official Arduino Starter Kit is yet another.
Hear, hear! It's like the author only considered young eyes would need to read it. And the colours! I blame Wired magazine for the whole "black text on dark blue" and "light grey text on medium red" thing. I see a lot of websites that are difficult to read. Picture of the book : Advan….
Picture Of The Book: Arduino Applied: Comprehensive Projects for Everyday Electronics About The Book: Learn how to create complex Arduino projects, divide them into smaller projects, then refine them, thereby expanding your understanding of each topic.
Arduino Uno will be used in a range of applications such as LED flashing, mapping with a mobile GPS system, and downloading information to the Internet.
