After converting a lead to an account/contact, set the account source as the lead source

I'm trying to make the account source field equal to the lead source field when the lead is converted.

I'm not seeing a way to do it with a workflow rule, though. I was given some advice that a trigger is what I'm looking for. Problem is, I have no clue how to start since I'm new to Apex.

My sudocode is as follows:

When lead is converted, set Lead.LeadSource = Account.AccountSource

    This was my first thought, but there is no AccountSource field to map to.

    Currently whenever the lead is converted, the account source is blank. What I'm trying to do is set the lead source = account source when the lead is converted. I'd rather this not be in a custom field.
