First we define a constant for the IO pin the PING))) sensor is connected to.
If you want to connect your sensor to another digital IO pin, you have to
change the program’s first line. In the setup method, we set the serial port’s
baud rate to 9600, because we’d like to see some sensor data on the serial
monitor.
