Explanation of changes:
Reading grades:
The while loop now checks for both the sentinel value (-99) and array bounds to prevent potential errors.
Calculating numberOfGrades:
The numberOfGrades variable is directly incremented within the while loop to accurately track the number of grades entered.
Calling findHighest and findLowest:
The functions are called with the appropriate arguments (grades array and numberOfGrades) to find and display the highest and lowest grades.
Function implementations:
The findHighest and findLowest functions now have their logic implemented to correctly find the highest and lowest values within the array.
This code should work as expected according to your instructions. It takes the grades as input and calculates the average, highest, and lowest grades.
The findAverage, findHighest, and findLowest functions are implemented to calculate the average, highest, and lowest grades, respectively.
The code you provided is essentially the same as the one I provided earlier, with the only difference being the way you handle the input of grades.
In your version, you use a while loop with a condition that checks if the array index is less than 100 and if the last entered grade is not -99.
This ensures that the program doesn’t exceed the array bounds and stops input when -99 is entered.
Here are some points to consider:
Pros of your approach:
Safety:
Your approach ensures that the program doesn’t exceed the array bounds, which could lead to undefined behavior.
Cons of your approach:
Off-by-One Error:
Your approach might lead to an off-by-one error.
If the user enters -99 as the first grade, the program will still increment pos and numberOfGrades, even though no valid grade was entered.
Pros of my approach:
Simplicity:
My approach is straightforward and easy to understand.
Cons of my approach:
Potential Overflow:
If the user enters more than 100 grades, my approach could lead to an array overflow, which could cause undefined behavior.
In terms of performance, there’s no significant difference between the two approaches.
However, in terms of safety, your approach is better because it prevents array overflow.
To fix the off-by-one error, you could add a condition to the while loop to check if pos is 0.
This would ensure that pos and numberOfGrades are only incremented if a valid grade is entered.
Run the program with the following data:
90 45 73 62 -99and record the output here
The average of all the grades is 67.5 The highest grade is 90 The lowest grade is 45
Modify your program from Exercise 1 so that it reads the information from the gradfile.txt file, reading until the end of file is encountered.
You will need to first retrieve this file from the Lab 7 folder and place it in the same folder as your C++ source code.
Run the program.

Look at the following table containing prices of certain items:
12.78 7.83 13.67 23.78 45.67 4.89 5.99 34.84 16.71 12.67 56.84 50.89These numbers can be read into a two-dimensional array.
Fill in the code to complete both functions getPrices and printPrices, then run the program with the following data:
Please input the number of rows from 1 to 10 2 Please input the number of columns from 1 to 10 3 Please input the price of an item with 2 decimal places 1.45 Please input the price of an item with 2 decimal places 2.56 Please input the price of an item with 2 decimal places 12.98 Please input the price of an item with 2 decimal places 37.86 Please input the price of an item with 2 decimal places 102.34 Please input the price of an item with 2 decimal places 67.89 1.45 2.56 12.98 37.86 102.34 67.89
Why does getPrices have the parameters numOfRows and numOfCols passed by reference whereas printPrices has those parameters passed by value?
The following code is a function that returns the highest price in the array.
After studying it very carefully, place the function in the above program and have the program print out the highest value.
float findHighestPrice(PriceType table, int numOfRows, int numOfCols)
// This function returns the highest price in the array{
float highestPrice;
highestPrice = table[0][0]; // make first element the highest price
for (int row = 0; row < numOfRows; row++) for (int col = 0; col < numOfCols; col++)
if ( highestPrice < table[row][col] ) highestPrice = table[row][col];
return highestPrice;
}
Create another value returning function that finds the lowest price in the array and have the program print that value.
After completing all the exercises above, run the program again with the values from Exercise 1 and record your results.

Option 1: Write a program that will input temperatures for consecutive days.
The program will store these values into an array and call a function that will return the average of the temperatures.
It will also call a function that will return the highest temperature and a function that will return the lowest temperature.
The user will input the number of temperatures to be read. There will be no more than 50 temperatures.
Use typedef to declare the array type.
The average should be displayed to two decimal places.
Sample Run: Please input the number of temperatures to be read 5 Input temperature 1: 68 Input temperature 2: 75 Input temperature 3: 36 Input temperature 4: 91 Input temperature 5: 84 The average temperature is 70.80 The highest temperature is 91.00 The lowest temperature is 36.00
Write a program that will input letter grades (A, B, C, D, F), the number of which is input by the user (a maximum of 50 grades).
The grades will be read into an array.
A function will be called five times (once for each letter grade) and will return the total number of grades in that category.
The input to the function will include the array, number of elements in the array and the letter category (A, B, C, D or F).
The program will print the number of grades that are A, B, etc.
Sample Run: Please input the number of grades to be read in. No more than 50 6 All grades must be upper case A B C D or F Input a grade A Input a grade C Input a grade A Input a grade B Input a grade B Input a grade D Number of A = 2 Number of B = 2 Number of C = 1 Number of D = 1 Number of F = 0
