This is the code a simple one.
//This Code was writen by Clayton's TEch
const int trigpin= 8;
const int echopin= 7;
long duration;
int distance;
void setup()
{
  pinMode(trigpin,OUTPUT);
  pinMode(echopin,INPUT);
  Serial.begin(9600);
 
}
void loop()
{
  digitalWrite(trigpin,HIGH);

  digitalWrite(trigpin,LOW);
  duration=pulseIn(echopin,HIGH);
  distance = duration*0.034/2;
  Serial.println(distance);
