Put your meter leads across two wires or terminals and read the value ... [FesZ] shows how many meters measure voltage across a known resistor and the unknown so that a precision voltage or ...

A brand new, still-in-the-packaging resistor should have its Ohms value printed out for easy reading, but any resistors that have been unboxed (or, say, found in a toolbox or drawer) won't offer ...

If you want to know more about the history of the resistor color code bands, then we have you covered. Alternatively, how about reading the color code directly with computer vision?
