[C++] One way to convert pointer of structure to vector

Of course, you can choose one method of C++ likes reinterpret which is described in below topic:
https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/reinterpret_cast-in-c-type-casting-operators/

However, it is easily to find out one big problem in here is:
reinterpret_cast is a very special and dangerous type of casting operator

In embedded system, this problem is not allowed. Then, we should convert it by manually.
The idea is, you push each structure to vector by passing number of structure to function which is used for converting.

[STM32] How to configure Timer 1, Channel 3 is PWM 1kHz, duty cycle 20% to control BLDC motor

 To configure Timer1 for a 1 kHz PWM signal with a 20% duty cycle on an STM32H7S3L8 microcontroller, follow these steps: 1. Understand the Timer Parameters PWM Frequency : 1 kHz → Period = 1 ms. Duty Cycle : 20% → ON time = 0.2 ms. The timer’s clock frequency is derived from the APB clock (e.g., TIMCLK). Let’s assume you know the APB clock frequency. The Timer prescaler and auto-reload register (ARR) define the PWM frequency. 2. Compute Timer Parameters Formula: PWM Frequency = Timer Clock (Prescaler + 1) * (ARR + 1) \text{PWM Frequency} = \frac{\text{Timer Clock}}{\text{(Prescaler + 1) * (ARR + 1)}} PWM Frequency = (Prescaler + 1) * (ARR + 1) Timer Clock ​ For 1 kHz PWM: A R R = Timer Clock PWM Frequency ∗ ( Prescaler + 1) − 1 ARR = \frac{\text{Timer Clock}}{\text{PWM Frequency} * (\text{Prescaler + 1)}} - 1 A RR = PWM Frequency ∗ ( Prescaler + 1) Timer Clock ​ −...

[Git] Handle trailing space when patching with git

After complete coding one module in development branch. Next phase is merging. Obviously, you can merge source code automatically without no errors happen. However, life is not dream. Create a patch git diff HEAD > newTariff.patch Apply patch git apply newTariff.patch then problem happens Problem git apply newTariff.patch:106: trailing whitespace. patch does not apply Route cause: Nguyên nhân: Do trong source code có những dấu space thừa (ô vuông màu đỏ hình dưới) Some whitespaces is existed in your patch. (red area in below pictures) Fix Clean white space and patch again. Cách khắc phục Xóa những dấu space này đi và thực hiện patch lại Make up after complete coding. Find and clean whitespace before create patch file. Sửa sau khi code xong Kiểm tra sau khi code xong có lỗi này không git diff HEAD --check Prevent whitespace by manually when typing source code Sửa ngay khi đang code =>Bật chức năng hiển thị các dấu whitespace, hoặc remove trailing ...
