Stepper motor on pins 8 to 11, on an Arduino Uno

// A 28BYJ-48 stepper on its ULN2003 board: one turn forward, one back.
//
//   ULN2003 IN1 -> pin 8    IN2 -> pin 9    IN3 -> pin 10    IN4 -> pin 11
//   ULN2003 +   -> 5V (on the bench, the breadboard power module)
//   ULN2003 -   -> GND
//
// A stepper does not spin when you power it. It turns one small step each
// time the coils are switched in the right order, so the code decides exactly
// how far it goes. Through its gearbox the 28BYJ-48 takes 2048 steps for one
// turn of the output shaft.
//
// The Stepper library wants the pins as IN1, IN3, IN2, IN4: that is why the
// constructor says 8, 10, 9, 11. Given 8, 9, 10, 11 the motor hums and does
// not turn.
