Learning from someone else's code is not a good idea if it is not
well documented and the code is poorly written. I like to write sample code
as I am learning a new program to demonstrate statements and function and to
document what it is doing. I then use this as templates when working on
projects.
Always remember to document your code well so the next person can
learn better from what you have done.
