Re: delta V = I R

Please tell me what utility one would gain from knowing the "resistance" of a non-ohmic

I have always believed and taught that the resistance value depends on the device's
temperature, not on the potential difference across it. Is there really a functional
relationship between R and delta V at constant T?
