\$\begingroup\$ normally they are used to interconnect the components of a breadboard or other prototype or test circuit, internally or with other equipment or components, without soldering \$\endgroup\$– AJAYOct 24, 2016 at 8:11

1\$\begingroup\$ @AJAY If you just wanted to know that, why do you ask for the differences between "female-male" and "male-female"? You realize there is no difference between both, then? \$\endgroup\$– dimOct 24, 2016 at 8:30

\$\begingroup\$ @dim I wanted to use female jumper wires for my project , and I didn't know the difference that's why I am asking such question. \$\endgroup\$– AJAYOct 24, 2016 at 8:37
