+ * This program toggles the green and red LEDs of the FRDM K22F Board 
+ * at the register level. Refer to the MK22FN512VLH12 datasheet
+ * to understand the registers.
+ * 
+ * At the general level:
+ * Sets PTA1 and PTA2 which LEDs are connected to GPIO mode.
+ * Sets both pins to be digital output.
+ * Turns red LED off by writing a 1 and leaves green on.
+ * Enters a loop which uses the Toggle Output Register to turn 
+ * LEDs on and off.
