Embedded Programming with Modern C++ Cookbook

How to do it...

We are going to create an application that uses the power of the C++ standard library algorithms to generate and process fixed data frames without using dynamic memory allocation: 

1. In your working directory, ~/test, create a subdirectory called array.
2. Use your favorite text editor to create a array.cpp file in the array subdirectory.
3. Add includes and a new type definition to the array.cpp file:

#include <algorithm>#include <array>#include <iostream>#include <random>using DataFrame = std::array<uint32_t, 8>;

4. Next, we add a function that generates data frames:

void GenerateData(DataFrame& frame) {  std::random_device rd; std::generate(frame.begin(), frame.end(), [&rd]() { return rd() % 100; });}

5. This is followed by ...
