Using Pico to test new old stock (NOS) IC - MC14512 - 8 Channel Data Selector

Code for tester:

The code uses a hybrid of declarative and procedural approach to perform the test. It uses the truth table to define a test 'matrix'. Each row defines the the inputs and encoded the expected output. The inputs to the IC to test are arranged/ encoded suitable to write to Espruino Pico pins by an array. Functions the use this data, apply the inputs as outputs, and do some additional iteration or variation of values. The results get written to the console. An output example is attached. Enhancements would be to power the IC and run the test on BTN1 press.

Note the 'renaming' of the pico pins to drive the IC: the Pico 'are named' for the Chip to test - C w/ chip's pin function Name - to make it obvious what is going on in the code.
