Summary

In this lab, you add the input and output statements to a partially completed C++ program. When completed, the user should be able to enter a year, a month, and a day. The program then determines if the date is valid. Valid years are those that are greater than 0, valid months include the values 1 through 12, and valid days include the values 1 through 31.

Instructions

1. Notice that variables have been declared for you.
2. Write the simulated housekeeping() function that contains the prompts and input statements to retrieve a year, a month, and a day from the user.

3. Include the output statements in the simulated endOfJob() function. The format of the output is as follows:

   month/day/year is a valid date.

   or

   month/day/year is an invalid date.

4. Execute the program by clicking the Run button at the bottom of the screen. Enter the following date:

   month = 5, day = 32, year = 2014.

5. Execute the program entering the following date:

   month = 9, day = 21, year = 2002.

Grading

When you have completed your program, click the Submit button to record your score.
