One of the most used programming tool on this planet is COPY / PASTE. However, using someone else’s work without proper understanding of the code may spell disaster.

One way to avoid re-inventing the wheel and also learn more about the source code you intend to use is to use a source code search engine. I tested the most important and these are the languages supported for search:
