## 2. Changing to the concept of executable objects
The goal of this task is to convert the code from task 1 so the `std::thread` API takes an
executable object by reference to move to a more object oriented task approach.
The goal of this task is to convert the code from task 1 so the `std::thread` API receives an
executable object to move to a more object oriented task approach.
The printout of the thread should remain the same. The executable objects should be named
`MyExecutableObject`. It contains one function called `periodicOperation` which performs the
printout, and a static function which takes the `MyExecutableObject` itself by reference and
executes it in a permanent loop.
The executable object should be passed into the `std::thread` directly.
The executable object should be passed into the `std::thread` directly. There are
two ways to do this.
### Hints
- [std::thread constructor](https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/thread/thread/thread)
- [std::reference_wrapper](https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/utility/functional/reference_wrapper)
to pass references to the [std::thread] API
- [std::chrono::milliseconds](https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/chrono/duration) has a constructor

calls. You can hardcode the delay to 1000ms for the first implementation.
5. Change your `std::thread` calls in the main. You can pass the new `executeTask` function
as the executable unit. The second argument should be an instance of the executable object

6. Add a constructor to `MyExecutableObject` which expects a millisecond delay
as an `uint32_t` and cache it as a member variable. Then use this member
variable in the `executeTask` implementation to make the task frequency configurable via the
