A diode is an electronic device having two electrodes,.i.e. the p n junction semiconductor diode valve which is used as a rectifier.Vacuum tube diodes are also used.
A transistor is a semiconductor device having three electrodes,three section ,two junction semiconductor device which is used as amplifier or oscillator.
A transistor is a TRANSFER RESISTOR.
two types of transistor are pnp and npn
