Pin Description:
A 10M Ohm resistor does not have pins in the classical sense, as it is a two-terminal device. However, for the sake of clarity, we can refer to the two terminals as "pins."
Pin 1 (One end): This is one terminal of the resistor. It is usually marked with a color code or a numerical value indicating the resistance value.
Pin 2 (Other end): This is the other terminal of the resistor. It is also usually marked with a color code or a numerical value indicating the resistance value.
Connecting the Pins:
To connect the 10M Ohm resistor, follow these steps:
Step 1: Identify the terminals
Identify the two terminals (pins) of the resistor. Make sure you understand the color code or numerical value indicating the resistance value.
Step 2: Determine the connection requirement
Determine the connection requirement in your circuit. Decide which component or node in the circuit the resistor needs to be connected to.
Step 3: Connect Pin 1
Connect Pin 1 (one end) of the resistor to the required node or component in the circuit. Ensure a secure connection using a suitable method, such as soldering or using a breadboard.
Step 4: Connect Pin 2
Connect Pin 2 (other end) of the resistor to the required node or component in the circuit. Ensure a secure connection using a suitable method, such as soldering or using a breadboard.
Important Notes:
When connecting the resistor, ensure the correct orientation, as the resistor does not have a polarity (it can be connected in either direction).
Use the correct wattage rating for the resistor, as specified in the datasheet, to avoid overheating or damage.
Follow proper soldering techniques and safety guidelines when connecting the resistor to the circuit.
By following these steps, you can correctly connect a 10M Ohm resistor in your circuit, ensuring a stable and reliable operation.

resistor_pin = 23

# Set up sensor and resistor pins as inputs
GPIO.setup(sensor_pin, GPIO.IN)
GPIO.setup(resistor_pin, GPIO.IN)

while True:
    # Read sensor value
    sensor_value = GPIO.input(sensor_pin)

# Read resistor value
    resistor_value = GPIO.input(resistor_pin)

# Calculate attenuated signal
    attenuated_signal = (sensor_value / (resistor_value + sensor_value))  5.0

print("Attenuated Signal: ", attenuated_signal)
    time.sleep(1)
