What does the code do?
----------------------
This code sets the robot position to 0 (using cmpc) then goes forward until robot position = 5000 (using gmpc)

Functions Used
--------------
cmpc( clear_motor_position_counter)

gmpc ( get_motor_position_counter)

mav( motor port, velocity)

Function Implementation
***********************

.. code-block:: python
   :linenos:

   #!/usr/bin/python3
   import os, sys
   sys.path.append("/usr/lib")
   from kipr import*

   def main():
      cmpc(0)
      while gmpc(0) < 5000:
         mav(0, 750)
         mav(3, 750)

   if __name__ == "__main__":
      main()

Rookie Tip
----------
By using gmpc, you can know what position your motor needs to be at, so you can further improve your code.
