/**
* \defgroup coding-style Coding style
*
* This is how a Doxygen module is documented - start with a \defgroup
* Doxygen keyword at the beginning of the file to define a module,
* and use the \addtogroup Doxygen keyword in all other files that
* belong to the same module. Typically, the \defgroup is placed in
* the .h file and \addtogroup in the .c file.
*
* The Contiki source code contains an Uncrustify configuration file,
* uncrustify.cfg, under tools/code-style and small helper scripts are
* provided at the same place. Note that this is not a silver bullet -
* for example, the script does not add separators between functions,
* nor does it format comments correctly. The script should be treated
* as an aid in formatting code: first run the formatter on the source
* code, then manually edit the file.
