Code

Code for project 1

Arduino
Copy this code into ide
#include <Servo.h>


Servo servo

void setup() {
  servo.attach(9);
  
}
void loop() {
  servo.write(0);
  delay(500);
  delay(10000);
  servo.write(90);
  delay(500);
  delay(10000);
  servo.write(180);
  delay(500);
  delay(10000);
  servo.write(90);
  delay(500);
  delay(10000);
  servo.write(0);
  delay(500);
  delay(10000);
}

Code for project 2

Arduino
Upload this code in a different sketch in ide
#include <Servo.h>

Servo servo;

void setup() {
  servo.attach(9);
  
}
void loop() {
  for(int i=0;i<180; i++){
    servo.write(i);
    delay(15);
  }
  for(int i=180; i>0; i--){
    servo.write(i);
    delay(7);
  }
  
}

Code for for project number 3

Arduino
Upload this code into a blank sketch in arduino
#include <Servo.h>

Servo servo;

void setup(){
  servo.attach(9);
}
void loop(){
  servo.write(10);
  delay(300);
  servo.write(0); 
  delay(300);
  servo.write(20); 
  delay(300);
  servo.write(0); 
  delay(300);
  servo.write(30); 
  delay(300);
  servo.write(0); 
  delay(300);
  servo.write(40); 
  delay(300);
  servo.write(0); 
  delay(300);
  servo.write(50); 
  delay(300);
  servo.write(0); 
  delay(300);
  servo.write(60); 
  delay(300);
  servo.write(0); 
  delay(300);
  servo.write(70); 
  delay(300);
  servo.write(0); 
  delay(300);
  servo.write(80); 
  delay(300);

  delay(300);
  servo.write(90);
  delay(300);
  delay(1000);
  servo.write(0); 
  delay(300);
  
}

Code for project 4

Arduino
Upload this code into a new sketch in ide
#include <Servo.h>

int pos=random(0,180);

Servo servo;

void setup(){
  servo.attach(9);
}
void loop(){
  servo.write(pos);
  delay(250);
  pos=random(0,180);
  delay(5000);
}
