Voltage [V] |
The measure of the power differental between two points. It is the electromotive force. This is measured in volts [V]. |
Current Iintensity
[I] |
The flow of electric charge across a surface. This is measured in amps [A]. |
Power
[P] |
The rate of energy transfer. This is measured in ['watts'] [W]. |
Resistance
[R] |
The rate of energy transfer. This is measured in ohms [Ω]. |

Revision history:
- 2020-10-25 : v1.2 - Updated PHP, to correct for warnings for lazy coding
- "Use of undefined constant amps - assumed 'amps'"
- "syntax error, unexpected '' (T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE),"
- 2017-07-29 : v1.1 - Fixed pow bug. x^2 != x*x . Use pow(x, 2).
Added if ($debug == 1), and index output of which formula(s) were used, with actual values.
- 2017-07-28 : v1.0 - Original work.
