hi user https://github.com/vittascience in their https://github.com/vittascience/microbit-libraries would appear to have stolen some of my code for dht11. I think they have either taken the forked copy of your code i have in repository https://github.com/rhubarbdog/microbit-tm1637 or directly taken it from your repository.

similarities object class definition uses variable names clk and dio they have shortened the _SEG byte array constant but still use 0x39 and 0x63 in a method called temperature there is also a method called numbers with parameters num1 and num2

Hi @rhubarbdog Thanks for the tip. It's open source, so allowed to be forked, modified and improved, so long as they keep the MIT copyright notice, which they seem to have discarded when minifying. I added a comment to your raised issue linking to the MIT license requirements.
