You can add as many remarks as you want... It won't show up in the
code or mess it up.
Just say something like
"/* The next line of code came from my PEAR class. I did not create
it, it was something we created in class. Just giving credit where
credit is due */"
I myself, wouldn't care. I mean, the burden of proving it would be on
them. And who's to say that you didn't get it elsewhere.
Just my $.02...
