Hi Daja;
You might consider a speed reading course. Sometimes a person's mind can wander while reading because the normal way is too slow to keep the brain interested.
my name is sanjeev batsakoti .i am a student but while reading i find difficult to read even the courses that are easy and my mind is distracted whilw reading . how can i improve my reading ? how can i accelerate my reading.i am a forgetful student .how can we remember for the long time

3. Color code in Resistors

Any more mnemonics???
For the resistor one my CT teacher at school taught us this
Bad Boys R*** Ordinary Young Girls But Virgins Go Without
Not exactly PC but this was the eighties, apparently it came out of BNFL, BAE Systems and Leyland Motors. Not sure if there is any truth to that.

Hi random_fruit;
I can't find the post where that happened but the site has a filter to weed out offensive or colorful words.

I see someone has edited the post I submitted on 2009-01-02. I had written:
_s_e_x_ over here = sine: opposite / hypotenuse
but someone or something had removed the naughty word _s_e_x_ and replaced it with gender giving the nonsense you can see above.

One that I was taught at a Electrician's class, consisting mostly of teenagers, for the sin, cos and tan:
gender Over Here Can Always Happen To Old Age
which means: gender Over Here: Sin = Opp / Hypot Can Always Happen: Cos = Adjac / Hypot To Old Age: Tangent = Opp / Adjac

We use BODMAS here. Oh and our specialist teacher made a mnemonic for sec, cosec and cot
CHOSHACTOA
cosect(H/O) sec(H/A) cot(O/A)
Don't know it its useful to others, but it works for me.
For the planets, I had always learned:
My Very Easy Method Just Speeds Up Naming Planets
To remember the English Monarchs, there's:
Willie, Willie, Harry, Stee, Harry, Rich, John, Harry Three, One-To-Three Neds, Richard Two, Harrys Four-Five-Six... then who?
Edwards Four-Five, Rich the Bad, Harrys (twain), Ned Six (the lad), Mary, Bessie, James you ken, Then Charlie, Charlie, James again...
Will & Mary, Anne of gloria, Georges ( 4! ), Will Four, Victoria, Edward Seven next, and then Came George the Fifth in 1910...
Ned the Eighth soon abdicated, So George Six was coronated, Then Number Two Elizabeth... And that's all, folks (until her death...)!!
Eventually, the last line is expected to be changed to: Charles Three (and now I'm out of breath...!)

PEMDAS, here, for order of operations.
I remember reading something after Pluto was reclassified. The mnemonic should now be:
My Very Eager Mother Just Served Us Nothing! <- the planets
Chris Plays Everything! <- the minor planets (so far)
