/* \file Simple PID controller.
   Implements a proportial-integral-derivative controller.
   Used when we want to iteratively control a variable to converge some other
   observed value to a 'set-point'.
   Gains can be set to adjust sensitivity to current error (p), the integral
   of error (i), and the derivative of error (d). */
