Exploring Series and Parallel Circuits

This video tutorial guides viewers through the process of setting up a circuit using an Arduino Uno and a breadboard. It explains the concepts of series and parallel connections, demonstrating how to connect LEDs in both configurations. The tutorial also covers the steps to power the circuit and test it using a simulation. The video aims to familiarize viewers with basic circuit assembly and the differences between series and parallel circuits.
