Programming Challenge: CHAPTER 6 PC 12 - Star Search, now with arrays!

Modify this program and its functions to use arrays instead of individual variables to contain the scores. This means that the functions that once received five scores will now receive as their parameters the name of the array and the size of that array. For example, one of the prototypes will be:

double getallest iconat double the rest in de

The only place in your code where the number 5 will appear is when you declare the number of scores (which will be the size of the arrays) in the main. Change that lone 5 to, say, a 10, and your program should request and process 10 scores

Also note that the get udgetato function and the accompanying validation function are reused exactly as they were in the previous assignment. Do not change these functions at all

12. Star Search A particular talent competition has five judges, each of whom awards a score between 0 and 10 to each performer. Fractional scores, such as 8.3, are allowed. A performer's final score is determined by dropping the highest and lowest score received, then averaging the three remaining scores. Write a program that uses this method to calculate a contestant's score. It should include the following functions:

o void get JudgeData() should ask the user for a judge's score, store it in a reference parameter variable, and validate it. This function should be called by main once for each of the five judges.

o void calcScore() should calculate and display the average of the three scores that remain after dropping the highest and lowest scores the performer received. This function should be called just once by main and should be passed the five scores.

1 The last two functions, described below, should be called by calcScore, which uses the returned information to determine which of the scores to drop.

o int findLowest() should find and return the lowest of the five scores passed to it.

int findHighest() should find and return the highest of the five scores passed to it.

Input Validation: Do not accept judge scores lower than 0 or higher than 10.
