2. Write equations for branch currents
In nodal analysis, we usually write the branch currents directly in terms of node voltages and branch resistances.
Care must be taken in keeping the polarity correct!

You can make the problem simpler by arbitrarily assuming current leaves each node
This simplifies the resulting equations and prevents polarity errors.

Current Sources A current source makes the equations simpler, since
now you know what the branch current is. Pay attention to POLARITY!
