Most assuredly NOT the way to run a motor using a photoresistor. Sounds real good in theory for somebody that doesn't know any better, but still, not the way to do it.
You might be wanting to use a phototransistor to do this job. But again, not the best way to do the job.
And how does this tie in to PicBasic?
