... copy the others' code, if available. It is always encouraging to see a hardware starting to work, and it's faster to do it this way rather than work out of the first principle


Unfortunately, the quality of provided code varies tremendously:

* some is utter rubbish, and will waste more of your time than if you had started from first principles!

The knack is to spot the difference early!
