WalkthroughThe changes update documentation on flip-flops and latches in sequential logic. Instructional text was revised to characterize SR and D flip-flops as edge-triggered devices responding to positive clock transitions rather than level- or enable-sensitive elements. A new section maps D flip-flop behavior to Verilog with an Suggested labels

61-65:⚠️ Potential issue | 🟠 MajorUnify edge-polarity wording to avoid conceptual contradiction
Line 61/Line 110 say “positive or negative clock transitions,” but Line 65/Line 114 state only positive/rising-edge behavior. Please make this consistent (and explicit to CircuitVerse behavior) to prevent learner confusion.
Suggested doc fix
-SR flip-flop operates with only positive clock transitions or negative clock transitions. Whereas, SR latch operates with enable signal. +SR flip-flop is edge-triggered (in CircuitVerse, on the positive/rising clock edge), whereas SR latch operates with an enable level. ... -D flip-flop operates with only positive clock transitions or negative clock transitions. Whereas, D latch operates with enable signal. +D flip-flop is edge-triggered (in CircuitVerse, on the positive/rising clock edge), whereas D latch operates with an enable level.Also applies to: 110-114

312-317:⚠️ Potential issue | 🟡 MinorUse “race-around condition” consistently in body text.
Line 316 still uses “race around condition” without hyphenation, while the subsection title is hyphenated.

Fixes #753
Changes done:
with explicit edge-triggered vs level-sensitive distinction
is edge-triggered unlike D latch which is level-sensitive
- Edge-triggered FF: always @(posedge clk) with non-blocking <=
- Level-sensitive latch: always @(D or en) for contrast
- Note on non-blocking vs blocking assignment best practice
