Project Detail

Description

This project will be a simple, working C++ program that utilizes a good design process and incorporates sequential, selection and repetitive programming statements as well as at least one function call. You should design, create, and then compile and execute the program. Be sure that your code compiles and executes correctly before submitting it.
 
Project Objective:
• Use the process of stepwise refinement to construct programs
• Demonstrate and explain the execution of sequential, conditional, and iterative programming statements
• Create and use functions
• Create, compile, and execute simple programs written in a modern object-oriented language
• Critically analyze project design solutions
 
• Deliverables:
⁃ programming language to solve a specific problem or issue in computer and information science.  In this project you will create a simple, working C++ program that utilizes a good design process and incorporates sequential, selection and repetitive programming statements and functions. The overall purpose of the program is to allow users to input a list of positive numbers into an array, find the average of the numbers in the array and output the result.   You should design, create, and then compile, execute and test the program. Be sure that your code compiles and executes correctly before submitting it.

• Specific functional requirements for this project:
•
• The overall purpose of the program is to allow users to input a list of positive numbers into an array, find the average of the numbers in the array and output the results.
• Use a top-down modular approach and pseudocode to design a suitable solution.
• After you develop your solution, you should test your product using appropriate and comprehensive data.
• You should document your approach to solving the problem with detailed justification for the approach you selected. In this documentation you should discuss possible issues, strengths and weaknesses to your approach. Alternative approaches not selected, but considered, should be discussed in your documentation.
• Specific deliverables include the pseudocode, all project code and documentation.
•  
• Format:
• Approach documentation format and length:
• The documentation describing and reflecting on your design and approach should be written using Microsoft Word and be no more than 5 pages in length  and no less than 2 pages. The font size should be 12 point. The page margins should be 1 inch. The paragraphs should be with double line spacing. All figures, tables, equations and referenced should be properly labeled and formatted using APA style.

 I have attached an input/output array mpodule that you mau use freely for this project.  It accepts both positive and negative numbers, and ends input with CTRL Z

void inputmod (int values [], int &count)
/***************************************************************************

{
count = 0;
do
cout << endl <<"Enter value " << count <<

outputmod (values, count);
}


void outputmod (int values [], int count)
