I'm trying to make a volume controler with a potentiometer, ive connected everything to it like I'm supposed to, but when i open the serial monitor it doesnt show any numbers there, im guessing the problem is either with my soldering ( ik i did bad, first time soildering) or it's with the connections to the potentiometer since the wires on the potentiometer can get taken off pretty easily, does anyone have any advice how to fix this?

wiring and soldering have nothing to do with the serial monitor showing values. even with nothing connected at all if the code is running on the arduino you'd see values in the serial monitor

Ohhh okay, so then there's something wrong with the code?
