Recently, I received an ASCII schematic for something, and it includes a
diode rectifier. Unfortunately, there aren't any arrows showing which way
the diode goes. Which one of these is it? (multiple choice for your convenience
:-)

a)  ____|\|____       b)   ___|\|____        c)  ____|/|____ 
   |    |/|    |          |   |/|    |          |    |\|    |
  ---         ---        ---        ---        ---         ---
   ^           ^          ^         \ /         ^          \ /
  /_\         /_\        /_\        ---        /_\         ---
   |           |          |          |          |           |
   |____|\|____|          |___|\|____|          |____|\|____|
        |/|                   |/|                    |/|


d)  ____|\|____       e) other
   |    |/|    |
  ---         ---
   ^          \ /
  /_\         ---
   |           |
   |____|/|____|
        |\|

I think there are only 4 ways to arrange the diodes, so there shouldn't be
an e, but I could be wrong...
