2nd paragraph, 4th line

"There are thee resisters..." Should be "There are four resisters..." When you look at Figure 5.29: Resistance in the electrical model, right image on page 169 you will see four resisters, NOT THREE. Easier to change the text than the graphic.

Variable Name

In the example: "int buttonState = 0;" under rules for selecting names; I would suggest adding a statement concerning the Capitalization of the second half of the variable. ie. buttonState, NOT buttonstate. I found when running verify, is showed an error, until I changed the "s" to a capital "S".

Q1 What will happen if I push both buttons at once?

Here is a challenge question to ask:

If you hold button one down and then also press button two down, nothing changes. But, if you hold button two down and then press button one down, the note will change. Why?
Hint: Your sketch is run, one line, then the next line, in consecutive order.

A: (You can write this part) Perhaps the question more complicated than you want for an introductory book. I just noticed this occurred when I built the circuit.
