I know that the reason why the North American resistor symbol is just squiggly lines because that is how the electrons flow (due to the way how resistors are made), but why is the European resistor symbol a box shape. Also there is a reason why capictorscapacitors have two lines seperatedseparated, but why does one valid schematic symbol have a curve? For integrated circuits, the pinout given in datasheets match the physical layout, but some schematics editors have multiple ways to represent one integrated circuit? Can someone explain that?
