/*
* \brief Get light intensity value (Lux & FootCandles) from Light dependent Resistor (LDR) a.k.a. photocell or photoresistor
*
* This library is easily usable with most GL55xx photoresistors (at ~25°C).
*
* It is also possible to use it with any other photocell (with the right parameters).
* If you use this library with other photocells, please send me the parameters in
* order to add them in the list.
*
* Schematics:
* ^
* _____ ___/___
* 5V |---|_____|----|__/____|--| GND
* or Other /
* 3.3V Resistor Photocell
*
* Note: By default, the photocell must be on the ground.
* It is possible to exchange the position of the photocell and the other resistor
* but you will have to call \p setPhotocellPositionOnGround(false).

* \brief LightDependentResistor Initialize the light intensity getter class
*
* Even thought some photocells are already defined, it is possible to
* define your own photocell.
* The relation between the photocell resistor and the lux intensity can be
* approximated to I[lux]=mult_value/(R[Ω]^pow_value).
*
* Example for GL5528 photocell:
* 1) Find curve Resistor->Lux intensity: http://cdn.sparkfun.com/datasheets/Sensors/LightImaging/SEN-09088.pdf
* 2) Get 2 points from the datasheet log curve: log(55000[Ω])->log(1[lux]) and log(3000[Ω])->log(100[lux])
* 3) Convert those 2 point into a "log linear curve" (with Excel for example): log(R[Ω]) = -0.6316 * log(I[lux]) + 4.7404 (linear)
* 4) Solve the equation to get I[lux]=mult_value/(R[Ω]^pow_value) approximation (with wolframalpha for example): I[lux] ~= 32017200/R[Ω]^1.5832
* https://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=log10(x)%3D-0.6316*log10(y)%2B4.7404
* 5) You just found the 2 parameters: mult_value=32017200 and pow_value=1.5832
*
