Question

Write a program that asks the user to enter the names of three salesmen. The program shouldÂ

then accept the sales produced for each quarter of the year. Display the name, and the total salesÂ

amount, of each salesman.Â

Hint: Consider using two arrays in parallel. One array holds the name of the salesman (stringÂ

data type) and the other array holds the sales numbers (double data type). Since the data forÂ

each salesman is of different data types, you cannot use one array to hold all of the data. (AnÂ

array is a collection of identical data types.) Arrays are considered to be parallel if one of theÂ

subscripts in each array references the same thought (e.g. name[1] holds the name for the secondÂ

salesman and the sales data for the second salesman would be in sales[1]†¦ ).

Hint: It is possible to solve this problem using a two dimensional array to hold the sales data withÂ

one dimension referring to quarter and the other dimension referring to the sales amount for theÂ

quarter. See if you can solve the problem, by calculating the total sales for each salesman as theÂ

data is entered and storing only the names of the salesman and the total sales for each salesman.

Consider whether this problem could actually be solved without arrays. (Exercise 1 yes, but youÂ

will need your two dimensional array for Exercise 2 below).

( SEPERATE PROGRAM)

Extend the previous lab  such  that the name, and the corresponding sales amount, of the salesmanÂ

who sold the highest sales are displayed for each quarter.
