If a resistor was important, (or even desirable) we would either include it, or recommend it.

I am assuming this is different...

the difference between a "resistor" and a "cap"/or "capasitor"?

Is the cap used to help reduce the electrical "ripple" effect talked about in other threads?

Is this used to help reduce problems caused by "cheaper" batteries?

I apologise in advance for my ignorance.
If you dont feel like schooling me, I understand, but maybe you can point me in the right direction to school myself on this?
Websites, links, forum threads about this subject I may have missed? etc.

Any and all info would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance

and be gentle
