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:
void getJudgeData() 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.
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.
The last two functions, described below, should be called by calcScore, which uses the returned information to determine which of the…
In C++, a reference variable is a variable type that refers to another variable. Example: “int& maxValRef” declares a reference to a variable of type int.
Differentiate between basic variables and non-basic variables?

- C# A large company pays its salespeople on a commission basis. The salespeople receive $200 per week plus 9% of their gross sales for that week. For example, a salesperson who sells $5,000 worth of merchandise in a week receives $200 plus 9% of $5,000, or a total of $650. You’ve been supplied with a list of the items sold by each salesperson. The values of these items are as follows: Item Value 239.99 19.75 99.95 350.89 Develop a C# application that inputs one salesperson’s items sold for the last week, then calculates and displays that salesperson’s total sales. There’s no limit to the number of items that can be sold by a salesperson. You do not have to implement this with classes and objects. Technical Requirements: Prompt the user to enter the salesperson’s name, and store this name in a variable. Prompt the user to enter an item number and a quantity sold of that item. Store these two entries in two separate variables called “intItem” and “intQuantity”. Using a DO-WHILE…arrow_forward(C PROGRAMMING ONLY) 4.

Instructions: In the code editor, you are provided with the definition of a struct Dog. This struct needs a string value for its breed. Furthermore, you are provided with a displayDog() function which accepts a struct Dog as its parameter.Your task is to create a Dog, take in a string user input, and then set it as the Dog's breed.Finally, call the displayDog() function and pass that Dog you created.Input 1.

Write a program for a two-player version of the game Nim: a human player will play against the computer. The game is simple: players take turns removing from 1 to 4 sticks from a pile of 13 sticks; the player who picks up the last stick wins the game. Here’s some pseudocode for the Nim game. Start by initializing some variables that will allow you to keep track of the state of the game: One variable should record how many sticks there are left in the pile; initially, this variable must be initialized to 13. There are two players in the game, who take turns. To remember who’s turn is next, use a variable with two states (= values). Say the variable is 1 if the human player is next, and it is 2, if the computer’s turn is next. Pick randomly the player who should start the game. Then, start the main loop of the game: the game should continue for as long as there still are sticks (at least one) to pick. In each repetition of the game loop, one player will play their turn:…arrow_forward
- There are two different kinds of variables: data members and local variables.arrow_forwardIN C++ This is a simulated chess game. With this project, I want you to move all the pieces on one side of the board. First: If you are unsure how the pieces of a chess board move, do some research. There is plenty of information out there to instruct how a chessboard functions. Your chess piece movement must follow the rules of the game. Second: This is a one-sided board and used to illustrate how each piece moves. Third: The program must keep track of the location of each piece. By this I mean that if a piece is moving, it must respect the position of the other pieces on the board. Fourth: With each move the user should also be given the option to start a new game or end the program.arrow_forward(Rounding Numbers) Function floor can be used to round a number to a specific decimal place. The statementy = floor(x * 10 + 0.5) / 10;rounds x to the tenths position (the first position to the right of the decimal point). The statementy = floor(x * 100 + 0.5) / 100;rounds x to the hundredths position (the second position to the right of the decimal point). Write a program that defines fourfunctions to round a number x in various ways:A. roundToInteger(number)B. roundToTenths(number)C. roundToHundredths(number)D. roundToThousandths(number)For each value read, your program should print the original value, the number rounded to the nearest integer, the number rounded to the nearest tenth, the number rounded to the nearest hundredth and the number rounded to the nearest thousandth.arrow_forward

- 01. Question Code in Develop a Java program using NetBeans for Codex. Your program should initially display a menu to the user. The menu should have three options, namely (1) Register for a Training Programme (2) Check Registration details (3) Exit Program (see Figure 3 attached). The program should make use of two functions, registerApplicant() for registering a new applicant andsearchDetails() for searching the registrant details. The registerApplicant() function should accept four lines of arguments namely: the registrant’s name, the registrant’s surname, the registrant’s ID number and training programme. It should then write these details to a text file.To write to the text file or retrieve the product details from the text file, you must have a text file to which you write and store the registrant details. Your text file should be named registrants.txt Also, ensure that the program repeatedly shows the menu until the point when option 3 is selected which terminates the program. .arrow_forwardIN PYTHON PLEASE AND FLOWCHART DRAWING COPUTERIZED PLEASE!!
