  • If your question is theoretical (you are dealing with ideal components), then the answer of Olin is just fine. If it is concrete, that's the answer of Andy.
  • In the concrete case furthermore, I would add that what interest the engineer in general is not only the inductance, but the whole picture, which involve parasitic capacitances, resistances and inductances: you usually want to know how your load react at a given frequency, or in a certain range of frequencies.
  • I've written much more details about that in my answer to [this question](https://electrical.codidact.com/posts/281628/281653#answer-281653), so, I will not repeat myself.

If your question is theoretical (you are dealing with ideal components), then the answer of Olin is just fine. If it is concrete, that's the answer of Andy. 

In the concrete case furthermore, I would add that what interest the engineer in general is not only the inductance, but the whole picture, which involve parasitic capacitances, resistances and inductances: you usually want to know how your load react at a given frequency, or in a certain range of frequencies.
