Your final year project isn't just to light the LED, is it?
That must be to test the waters - what is the ultimate goal, some medical or
robotics application?
Have a great day!

Not always. I've met plenty who somehow get into a job, fudge their way
through, and somehow keep good engineers down while they get away with
murder. Of course most of them end up being relegated to sales :-P .
trouble is in this ass backwards world they usually make more money than
indentured slaves sorry, engineers do.

Also the Peter principle applies.

If they pass the course, and get a job, they will fail the job, get
fired, and realize that you cant go successfully thru life cheating.

As a newbie here myself, I have to marvel at all the requests I see
scroll by for "do my work." At this point, my profession is Nursing, but
I did have nearly two decades experience as a successful systems
engineer. I assumed it was my job to read, lurk, experiment as much as
possible, all of which I believe facilitates the learning process.
Questions were, hopefully, succinct, and held back until I'd done my own
homework/research. I find the lack of curiosity on the part of these
students somewhat distressing. I certainly hope they are the
exception...
