Arduino Ultrasonic HCSR40

This Arduino sketch uses an HC-SR04 ultrasonic distance sensor to measure distances between 0-200 cm. It triggers the sensor, measures the echo pulse duration to calculate distance, and prints the distance to the serial monitor or a negative number if out of range. It originated online and has been modified by multiple sources for readability and functionality.
