O’Reilly covers everything we've got, with content to help us build a world-class technology community, upgrade the capabilities and competencies of our teams, and improve overall team performance as well as their engagement.I wanted to learn C and C++, but it didn't click for me until I picked up an O'Reilly book. When I went on the O’Reilly platform, I was astonished to find all the books there, plus live events and sandboxes so you could play around with the technology.I’ve been on the O’Reilly platform for more than eight years. I use a couple of learning platforms, but I'm on O'Reilly more than anybody else. When you're there, you start learning. I'm never disappointed.I'm always learning. So when I got on to O'Reilly, I was like a kid in a candy store. There are playlists. There are answers. There's on-demand training. It's worth its weight in gold, in terms of what it allows me to do.

1 The concept of point charges assumes that the charge is located at a singular point in space.
2 This is true for the electrostatic case that we are discussing here. We will see later that there can be closed electric field lines under time-varying conditions.
3 The gradient operator can be written using the Nabla operator (grad ϕ = ∇ϕ). Both forms are common [3].
4 Unfortunately the term polarization is also used in the context of plane waves and antennas with a completely different meaning. We will discuss plane waves in Section 2.5.1.
5 This equation is only valid for a current that is constant in time and a current density distribution that is homogeneous over the cross-section area. If we consider time-varying fields the so called skin effect ...
