code ardunio joystick

This document contains an Arduino sketch for controlling a motor using a joystick. It sets up pins for motor control and reads joystick input to determine motor direction (forward, backward, or stopped) based on defined dead zone thresholds. The motor is enabled or disabled accordingly, and joystick values are printed to the Serial Monitor.
