Conductance matrix for resistors in series

Description

Conductance matrix for resistors of arbitrary resistance in series

Usage

series(n, x = 1)

Arguments

n Number of resistors. See details.
x The resistances of the resistors. Either a scalar, or a vector of length n is assumed but standard recycling is used.

Details

Note: the function returns a conductance matrix of size n+1 by n+1, because n resistors in series have n+1 nodes to consider.

Examples

## Resistance of four resistors in series:

resistance(series(5),1,5) ##sic!  FOUR resistors have FIVE nodes

## What current do we need to push into a circuit of four equal
## resistors in order to maintain the potentials at 1v, 2v, ..., 6v?

circuit(series(5),v=1:6)
