Species

Species within the genus Rapana include:

gollark: But basic DC electronics stuff and reading waveforms off oscilloscopes, yes. Also electromagnets for some reason, but not in any detail.
gollark: Oh, right, no.
gollark: I did basically the same stuff for GCSE physics, which is unsurprising since, well, it's the same course, except not these "op-amps".
gollark: I'm doing A-level physics (and maths, further maths and computer science) next year, but I'm somewhat distrustful of schools' ability to actually usefully teach (some) things.
gollark: I didn't, though we did cover... general radioactive stuff... for GCSE physics.
