The code

The left part of the script is responsible for the movement of our Football Player. Every cursor movement key is assigned for movement of the robot. The left column of the code is responsible for the goal celebration – pressing “Z” on your keyboard triggers flashing LEDs and beep sounds on the buzzer.
