Question

Write a program that reads in the average monthly rainfall for a city for each month of the year and then reads in the actual monthly rainfall for each of the previous 12 months. The program then prints out a nicely formatted table showing the rainfall for each of the previous 12 months as well as how much above or below average the rainfall was for each month. The average monthly rainfall is given for the months January, February, and so forth, in order. To obtain the actual rainfall for the previous 12 months, the program first asks what the current month is and then asks for the rainfall figures for the previous 12 months. The output should correctly label the months. There are a variety of ways to deal with the month names. One straightforward method is to code the months as integers and then do a conversion before doing the output. A large switch statement is acceptable in an output function. The month input can be handled in any manner you wish, as long as it is relatively easy and pleasant for the user. After you have completed the above program, produce an enhanced version that also outputs a graph showing the average rainfall and the actual rainfall for each of the previous 12 months. Your program should ask the user whether she or he wants to see the table or the bar graph, and then should display whichever format is requested. Include a loop that allows the user to see either format as often as the user wishes until the user requests that the program end.

Explanation / Answer

#include #include #include #include #include using namespace std; void printMonth(int month); // PRECONDITION: month holds an integer 1-12 // POSTCONDITION: the corresponding month (Jan, Feb, ..., Dec) has been printed to the standard output. int main() { double rainfall[12]; //this year's rainfall for each month double averages[12]; //average rainfalls for each month int currentMonth; //what month is it? 1-based // Get the average rainfall for each month, Jan-Dec cout
