Is this still taught? Been years since I had it all memorized, but I figured younger generations would be using their phones or apps to figure it out nowadays.
Also even though I was taught this, we had no use for it as we would simply replace entire boards rather than troubleshoot too deeply unless there was a reoccurring error.

It's all SMD nowadays, even the DIY boards.

Still useful for when dealing with systems with industrial wire harnesses. Not all, but lots of them use the color code. Really nice to know which wire you are looking at on a 50 wire harness, thanks to the color code.

And the resistors are also good for breadboarding. But they've been pretty well deprecated.
