Default 0 (ZERO) Ohm Resistors (WTF)........

In article t,
says...

While it does say multiplier, it is not the traditional 'multiply any
number by zero and you get zero. It is more like the number of zeros to
put at the end. That is why a red red black is 22 ohms and not zero
ohms.


The multiplier is ten to the power of the colour. Any number to the
power of zero is one. Hence the result you cite.
