Have you seen the new topic created that discuses Arduino on line simulators? It might be an idea that a video be made showing the Wokwi Arduino simulator and it uses in trying out new projects. I would like to hear your views on the subject,

I've looked at a few of these, including Wokwi. I was considering doing an episode reviewing them, although so far, I haven't found one that really thrilled me.
Still, it's a great suggestion (and it was when it was first suggested about half a year ago), and I will accept it!

I will look forward to a review on Wokwi, and could you possibly answer this question. Why is it that you can put a LED directly across the supply and ground, effectively passing infinite current without destroying the LED. Is it a shortcoming of the software. When you do this with the Tinkercad simulator the LED is shown to be destroyed. There mat be a few other discrepancies between on line simulators and real world circuit builders that can be unsettling. I have been examining many of the example Wokwi files and found users have discovered features that are not in the original description.

@dronebot-workshop According to @etech_student Wokwi has NO transistors.
First computer 1959. Retired from my own computer company 2004.
Hardware - Expert in 1401, and 360, fairly knowledge in PC plus numerous MPU's and MCU's
Major Languages - Machine language, 360 Macro Assembler, Intel Assembler, PL/I and PL1, Pascal, Basic, C plus numerous job control and scripting languages.
My personal scorecard is now 1 PC hardware fix (circa 1982), 1 open source fix (at age 82), and 2 zero day bugs in a major OS.
