My code and wiring is correct but the IR sensor is not working

Using Arduino Programming Questions
1

So I'm trying to do my first arduino project. Searched youtube for a guide the wiring is correct and this is the code

int ir=7;
// the ir is the infrared sensor
int x;

void setup()
{
Serial.begin(9600);
pinMode(7,INPUT);
}

void loop()
{
x=digitalRead(ir);
Serial.println(x);
delay(300);

}

Despite your confidence, the wiring is the most likely suspect. Please post a hand drawn wiring diagram, with all connections, pins and parts clearly labeled.

Identify the Arduino, and also, post a link to the product page and/or data sheet of the IR sensor.
