Chapter 7, Problem 12PC
12.1994 Gas Prices
In the student sample programs for this book, you will find a text file named 1994_Weekly_Gas_Averages.txt. The file contains the average gas price for each week in the year 1994. (There are 52 lines in the file. Line 1 contains the average price for week 1, line 2 contains the average price for week 2, and so forth.) Write a
- Display the lowest average price of the year, along with the week number for that price, and the name of the month in which it occurred.
- Display the highest average price of the year, along with the week number for that price, and the name of the month in which it occurred.
- Display the average gas price for each month. (To get the average price for a given month, calculate the average of the average weekly prices for that month.)

7. Quarterly Sales Statistics
Write a program that lets the user enter four quarterly sales figures for six divisions of a
company. The figures should be stored in a two-dimensional array. Once the figures are
entered, the program should display the following data for each quarter:
• A list of the sales figures by division
• Each division's increase or decrease from the previous quarter (this will not be dis-
played for the first quarter)
The total sales for the quarter
• The company's increase or decrease from the previous quarter (this will not be dis-
played for the first quarter)
• The average sales for all divisions that quarter
• The division with the highest sales for that quarter
Input Validation: Do not accept negative numbers for sales figures.
Question
Write a program to create an answer sheet to read the student’s answers for a ten (10) item exam. It should then display a message indicating the score and remarks whether the student passed or failed the exam. (A student must correctly answer 6 of the 10 questions to pass the exam.)
Here are the correct answers (key to correction), which should be initialized and stored in an array:
TRUE
FALSE
TRUE
FALSE
FALSE

What I need is a C++ program and must use array of strings.
8. Grade Book
A teacher has five students who have taken four tests. The teacher uses the following grading
scale to assign a letter grade to a student, based on the average of his or her four test scores:
Test Score
Letter Grade
90–100
A
80-89
B
70-79
C
60-69
D
0-59
Write a class that uses a String array or an ArrayList object to hold the five students' names,
an array of five characters to hold the five students' letter grades, and five arrays of four
doubles each to hold each student's set of test scores. The class should have methods that
return a specific student's name, the average test score, and a letter grade based on the average.
Demonstrate the class in a program that allows the user to enter each student's name and his
or her four test scores. It should then display each student's average test score and letter grade.
Input Validation: Do not accept test scores less than zero or greater than 100.

One simple method is to associate level elements with certain symbols, and then storing them in a 2D grid inside a text file. We will use our knowledge of 2D arrays to create a very simple Level Map Creator tool. The program should prompt the user to enter a width and height for the level.

A final loop displays the elements of the array, each on a line, with an indication as to whether that number is lower or higher than the average. For example, if the numbers generated are 5, 28, 3, 8, 15, 7, 22, 6, 1, 4, then the program will print: Average = 9.9 5 28 3 8 15 7 22 6 1 4 11 11 11 -- 11 11 1- —— 11 lower than average higher than average lower than average lower than average higher than average lower than average higher than average lower than average lower than average lower than averagearrow_forwardAssignment 5C: Level Map Creator.

- Lotto Program C++Write a program that simulates the Powerball lottery. In Powerball, a ticket is comprised of 5 numbers between 1 and 69 that must be unique, and a Powerball number between 1 and 26. The Powerball does not have to be unique. Hint: You can use an array to represent the 5 unique numbers between 1 and 69, and an integer variable to represent the powerball. The program asks the player if they'd like to select numbers or do a 'quickpick', where the numbers are randomly generated for them. If they opt to select numbers, prompt them to type the numbers in and validate that they are unique (except the powerball), and in the correct range. The program then generates a 'drawing' of 5 unique numbers and a Powerball, and checks it against the user's lotto ticket. It assigns winnings accordingly. Because it is so rare to win the lottery, I suggest hard coding or printing values to when testing the part of the program that assigns winnings.arrow_forwardAn array can hold as much different data types as you want.
