Stap 4: Code
De code is heel eenvoudig en alles wat het doet is leest het kompas lezingen en drukt het uit op een seriële monitor. Het kompas kalibreert voor een paar seconden bij het uitvoeren van de code maken zeker niet te draaien of verstoren van het kompas, terwijl dit gebeurt, en nadat het is voltooid zou je een mooie stroom van gegevens van de sensor.
