ID: _file/rpi-pico-w/upython/thermistor_fan_control.py

This example attempts to keep temperature to a fixed point by turning on a fan when a thermistor gets too hot.
You can test it easily if you are not in a place that is too hot by holding the thermistor with your finger to turn on the fan.
You can use a simple LED to represent the fan if you don't have one handy.
