Detailed Description

This file contains classes to run cooperatively scheduled tasks in a multitasking system.

Tasks are created as descendents of class CoTask, with the user overriding the run() method of CoTask and the ready() method if appropriate. References to all the tasks to be run in the system are kept in a list maintained by class CoTaskList; the system scheduler then runs the tasks' run() methods according to a chosen scheduling algorithm such as round-robin or highest-priority-first.
