Basic resistance calculation

[-]

1) I know the formula for calculating total resistance but what if the
other branch is empty?

A -----+---+
| |
| |
R |
| |
| |
B -----+---+

2) All current goes through the branch without the resistance?

dead short.

We shouldn't be at that time a year again, should we?

huh?

Every semester, around finals week, all of the kids that have spent the
semester drunk and/or stoned start cramming for their finals, and they
panic when they realize that they don't understand a word of what the
textbook is about, so they come here and ask for the answers to the
exercises, so they can pass the test and graduate illiterate. >:-[
