Arduino +Sparkfuns 4-digit 7-segment 16pin display

Testato,
If I understand you correctly, it is probably simplest to adjust the wiring rather than the code. Take a look at Arduino pins 10,11,12,13. Those corresponds to the digits.
Say right now you have it wired like this:

Arduino Display
10 P
11 Q
12 R
13 S

You have complete control as to which digit value correspond to which display digit. What if you re-wire it like this?

Arduino Display
13 P
12 Q
11 R
10 S

Good luck!
