const int ledPin = 13;  // Choose a digital pin on the Arduino board
void setup() {
  pinMode(ledPin, OUTPUT);
}
void loop() {
  digitalWrite(ledPin, HIGH);  // Turn the LED on
  delay(1000);
  digitalWrite(ledPin, LOW);  // Turn the LED off
  delay(1000);
}

1. Connect the 1k resistor to the LED's cathode (short leg) and the Arduino's digital pin 13.
2. Connect the LED's anode (long leg) to the Arduino's 5V pin.
3. Connect the resistor's other end to the breadboard's ground rail.
### Example 2: Using Resistors in a Voltage Divider Circuit (Raspberry Pi)
In this example, we will use two resistors from the Resistor Box to create a voltage divider circuit with a Raspberry Pi.

```python
import time
import RPi.GPIO as GPIO
GPIO.setmode(GPIO.BCM)
# Define the pins for the voltage divider circuit
Vin = 17  # Input voltage (e.g., 5V)
Vout = 18  # Output voltage
GPIO.setup(Vin, GPIO.IN)
GPIO.setup(Vout, GPIO.IN)
while True:
    # Calculate the output voltage using the voltage divider formula
    Vout_voltage = (Vin_voltage  1000) / (2000 + 1000)
    print("Output Voltage: {:.2f}V".format(Vout_voltage))
    time.sleep(1)
