I would do this a bit differently. I'd build the Timer class so that
you could do this:

Timer timer;
timer.addTask(c1, 3); // do C1 every three seconds.
timer.addTask(c2, 3); // do C2 every three seconds.
timer.addTask(c3, 5); // do C3 every five seconds.
timer.addTask(c4, 7); // do C7 every seven seconds.
