Two or more elements are in series if they are cascaded or connected
sequentially and consequently carry the same current.
Two or more elements are in parallel if they are connected to the same two
nodes and sequentially have the same voltage across them.

Kirchhoff’s laws, coupled with Ohm’s law, make a sufficient and powerful set of
tools for analyzing a large variety of electric circuits.
Kirchhoff’s current law (KCL) states that the algebraic sum of currents
entering a node (or a closed boundary) is zero.
