How to use a pneumatic cylinder | Arduino tutorial

Hey everyone! If this video went a little fast, and you would like a BEGINNER ARDUINO TUTORIAL. check this video out; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vS2-lkh3hM8&t=249s . In this video, the basics of Arduino are explained IN DEPTH. So check it out, if you would like to broaden your knowledge.

___________CODE____________

Int sol = 8; //Tell the Arduino that the positive end of the solenoid is
//plugged into pin 8

Int sen = 1; //Tell the Arduino that the positive end of the Sensor is
//plugged into pin 1

Void setup() { //this is included in every code we will be
//dealing with. This part runs once.

pinMode(sol, OUTPUT); //These two lines tell the Arduino if the
pinMode(sen, INPUT); // connections are INPUTS or OUTPUTS
}

void loop() { // this will run continuously after the Void setup has
// run once

Int val = digitalRead(sen); // Instate a new variable, that is reading
// weather the sensor is sensing
//movement or not. (High or Low)

if(val == HIGH){ //If statutes ask the Arduino if the
//sensor value is reading HIGH (movement)

digitalWrite(sol, HIGH); // if it is high we will send power
// to the solenoid
delay(1000);

}else{ // if it is high we will send power
// to the solenoid
digitalWrite(sol, LOW);
delay(1000);

}
