If the breadboard was X-Rayed, we would see the internal connections and the
breaks in the Vdd and Vss rails that need to be connected. Here’s a view of the
breadboard’s internal connections:

Start by setting your wire stripper for 22 gauge (0.34 mm
). Take the spool of black
wire and strip a ¼-inch (6 mm) length of insulation from the end of the wire. With
your needle-nose pliers, carefully bend the bare wire 90 degrees so that it looks like
this:
Now push the bare wire into the topmost (ground) rail, into the socket that is just
above breadboard column 29 (this socket is just left of the middle of the breadboard,
near the top). Hold the wire so that it extends to the right. Mark the insulation by
lightly pinching it with the wire cutters at the socket above column 32. Be careful
not to cut the wire.
Remove the wire from the breadboard and cut it about ¼-inch (6 mm) beyond the
mark you just made. With your wire strippers, remove the insulation at the mark.
Now bend the second bare end 90 degrees so that the wire forms a squared “U”
shape with the insulation in the middle.
