//==================================
// Add any libraries that you use:
//==================================
#include "mbed.h"
#include "Servo.h"


//==================================
// Add variables:
//==================================


//add a servo to PWM output on pin 25
Servo myservo(p21);

//add a variable for motor speed
//0.0 is full counter-clockwise
//0.5 is zero rpm
//1.0 is full clockwise

float speed = 0.5;

//add variables for the 4 onboard LEDS
DigitalOut led1(LED1), led2(LED2), led3(LED3), led4(LED4);

//PC USB link
Serial pc(USBTX, USBRX);


//==========================================================
//  MAIN FUNCTION
//  waits for button press, then uses the button code above
//==========================================================

//prompt the PC user for differential speed value
