Arduino Motor Control Code Example

This document is an Arduino sketch for controlling two DC motors using the Adafruit Motor Shield library. It sets up serial communication to receive commands for moving the motors forward, backward, left, right, or stopping them. The motor speed is set to 200, and commands are processed in a loop to control motor movement accordingly.
