I am fairly new to arduino and I was wondering if there was any way that I can control a servo with a keyboard I have been trying to find some sources online but I haven't had much luck

You haven't found zoomkat's code yet? He'll be along in a moment.

The below servo test code uses the pc keyboard keys. Type the desired servo position in the serial monitor text box, then send the position to the arduino. If you want to use keys like the up, down, left, and right keys to move the servo, you will need another application on the pc to perform those …

thanks for the code and do you know of any programs that will allow me to use my arrow keys

There are various programming languages that can take keyboard key status input and that can support serial port operations. You will need to look for one that matches your level of programming experience.
