Arduino library for A4988, DRV8825, DRV8834, DRV8880

This Arduino library, written by forum member laurb9, allows users to control a stepper motor with Pololu's A4988, DRV8825, or DRV8834 carriers. The library has functions that enable users to set rotational rate, change microstepping mode, and specify how many steps to take or specify how many degrees to rotate.
