The video tutorial explains how to write code for mathematical calculations to control a robot's movement based on wheel diameter. It covers creating variables, converting diameter to circumference, calculating distance, and converting it to degrees. The tutorial also demonstrates how to implement motor movement using the calculated degrees, allowing the robot to travel a specified distance.
