How to use Time-of-flight distance sensor with Arduino

I used this code: (see page source):
- include "Adafruit_VL53L0X.h"
Adafruit_VL53L0X lox = Adafruit_VL53L0X();
void setup() {
Serial.begin(115200);
// wait until serial port opens for native USB devices while (! Serial) { delay(1); } Serial.println("Adafruit VL53L0X test"); if (!lox.begin()) { Serial.println(F("Failed to boot VL53L0X")); while(1); } // power Serial.println(F("VL53L0X API Simple Ranging example\n\n"));
}
void loop() {
VL53L0X_RangingMeasurementData_t measure; //Serial.print("Reading a measurement... "); lox.rangingTest(&measure, false); // pass in 'true' to get debug data printout!
if (measure.RangeStatus != 4) { // phase failures have incorrect data // Serial.print("Distance (mm): "); Serial.println(measure.RangeMilliMeter); } else { Serial.println(1); // Serial.println(" out of range "); } delay(100);
}
