Data are stored in cells of a flash memory by assigning a first portion of the data to be stored in a first cell and a second portion of the data to be stored in one or more second cells. The first cell is programmed to store the first portion in accordance with the second portion. The second cell(s) is/are programmed to store the second portion. At least a portion of the programming of the first cell is effected before any of the programming of the second cell(s).
