I don't think this is quite correct.  Once you get into frequency 
dependent circuits (filters) you move into more complex math. 
Thankfully, things like Laplace transforms make most of it algebra. 
Still, if you understand the basic filter topologies you can accomplish 
a lot by playing with circuit values in a simulator.
