Week of March 6th - 10th

-Data will be collected using ThingSpeak.
-An account was made and now I am trying to test the collection of data using a provided example (the code used is displayed below).
-There is an issue with displaying the voltage from A0 (analog) pin in ThingSpeak. I need to conduct further research in order to properly collect the data in ThingSpeak.

WriteVoltage Code to test ThingSpeak:
