A set of custom made large numbers for a 16x2 LCD HD44780 Arduino Library
/*
A set of custom made large numbers for a 16x2 LCD using the
LiquidCrystal librabry. Works with displays compatible with the
Hitachi HD44780 driver.
The Cuicuit:
LCD RS pin to D12
LCD Enable pin to D11
LCD D4 pin to D5
LCD D5 pin to D4
LCD D6 pin to D3
LCD D7 pin to D2
LCD Vee tied to a pot to control brightness
LCD Vss and R/W tied to ground
LCD Vcc to +5V
