/**
* Create a single persistent task which periodically dynamically creates another
* two tasks. The original task is called the creator task, the two tasks it
* creates are called suicidal tasks.
*
* One of the created suicidal tasks kill one other suicidal task before killing
* itself - leaving just the original task remaining.
*
* The creator task must be spawned after all of the other demo application tasks
* as it keeps a check on the number of tasks under the scheduler control. The
* number of tasks it expects to see running should never be greater than the
* number of tasks that were in existence when the creator task was spawned, plus
* one set of four suicidal tasks. If this number is exceeded an error is flagged.

/*
Changes from V3.0.0
+ CreationCount sizes changed from unsigned portBASE_TYPE to
unsigned portSHORT to minimize the risk of overflowing.
+ Reset of usLastCreationCount added
Changes from V3.1.0
+ Changed the dummy calculation to use variables of type long, rather than
float. This allows the file to be used with ports that do not support
floating point.
