resist(desired_valu​e,p_c_error,display​all_012,ThreeResist​ors01)

Calculates optimal series/parallel resistor combinations for equivalent resistance 2 or 3 resistors

You are now following this Submission

Given a % error tolerance, optimised solution for an equivalent resistance is provided using 2 or 3 series or parallel resistors. Recommend using only 2 resistor combinations, answer arises in <0.4 seconds. Three resistors resistor combination solutions take approximately 7 minutes, and it is advised these solutions are for emergency use only. Full instructions available with example code by entering 'help resist'.
