int sensorValue = 0;        // Variable to store sensor reading
void setup() {
  Serial.begin(9600);
}
void loop() {
  sensorValue = analogRead(sensorPin);

 esp32_pin = machine.Pin(15, machine.Pin.IN)
while True:
    # Read the sensor value
    sensor_value = sensor_pin.value()
# Attenuate the signal using the 47k ohm resistor
    attenuated_value = sensor_value  (5.0 / 3.3)  # assume 3.3V input
