More silly questions on how to make a stepped attenuator

On the Goldpoint site there are resistor charts for 5K,10K, etc...

The table below the resistor values for each step, how are they connected?

For example a 10K attenuator.

Is a 10K resistor in line with the signal?

Then the table value resistors are individual shunt resistors?

Are the table resistors all in series from 0db for full?

What is the difference between this arrangement and one with a varied signal resistor and varied shunt resistor?

Sorry for these stupid questions.
