/*
 * Basic Arduino Serial Plotter Example
 * 
 * This sketch generates sample data compatible with the Web Serial Plotter.
 * It outputs multiple data series in CSV format with headers.
 * 
 * Data Format:
 * - Header line starts with '#' followed by series names
 * - Data lines contain comma-separated values
 * - Each line represents one time sample across all series
 * 
 * Compatible with Web Serial Plotter at:
 * https://github.com/your-repo/web-serial-plotter
