In this video, I use LTSpice to confirm some calculations for an AC circuit parallel resistor, inductor, and capacitor.
You can find that video here:    • AC Analysis: Parallel RLC Circuit. Ca...  

Here, I confirm that my voltage and current calculations are correct using LTSpice.
The LTSpice tricks that I used are
1) using keyboard shortcuts for placing components:
a) v for voltage source
b) r for resistor
c) l for inductor
d) c for capacitor
e) g for ground
2) Using a dummy resistor to measure current from the source
3) Using cursors in the AC sweep to
4) Changing the vertical axis of the Bode plot to display voltage and current instead of dBv and dB(current)

The example used in this video comes from a free, online, open source textbook by Tony Kuphaldt. You can find that book here:
