Experience the ease of dual LED matrix display control with MAX7219 and TM4C1299KCZAD

/*!
 * @file main.c
 * @brief MatrixR Click example
 *
 * # Description
 * This example showcases how to prepare the logger and click modules for use and 
 * how to display ASCII characters on both of the LED segments of the click.
 *
 * The demo application is composed of two sections :
 *
 * ## Application Init
 * This function initializes and configures the logger and click modules. After the initialization of the logger module, 
 * communication, mikrobus and pin setup, some of the registers are configured in order for the click module to work properly.
 *
 * ## Application Task
 * This function displays two strings on each of the LED segments, showing one character every second. 
 * It should display " Mikroelektronika" on the left one and "Mikroelektronika " on the right.
 *
 * @note
 * The click has two chips, each controlling one of the LED segments, on and requires you to write data to both at the same time. 
 * Writing to one specific chip will not work. If you wish to display characters on a single segment, you have to send ' ' characters to the other segment.
