Can someone break this down into stupid for me?

Look here. I'm looking at solution 1. What EXACTLY is it saying I need? Is it saying I need 1 100 ohm resistor or ten. I'm thinking ten. I'm thinking it's saying 10 100 ohm 1/4w resistors. Am I right? Thanks! Btw, just in case you have to add the numbers it was 12 for source voltage, 2.0 for dfv, 20 for dfc and 50 diodes in the array.

10 - 100 ohm resistors

just look at the schematic diagram

So others can see the results more easily:

The wizard says: In solution 1:

• each 100 ohm resistor dissipates 40 mW
• the wizard thinks 1/4W resistors are fine for your application
• together, all resistors dissipate 400 mW
• together, the diodes dissipate 2000 mW
• total power dissipated by the array is 2400 mW
• the array draws current of 200 mA from the source.

But, I agree, it says you need ten 100 Ohm Resisters (1/4 Watt)

GD someone else posted it. I don't want to steal someones shine.
