Scenario

There are six cars in each team called Chevy and Ford. One car from each team races its opponent on the drag strip. Read in the racing times for the six Chevy cars and then read in the times for the six Ford cars. Store the times into arrays called Chevy[ ] and Ford[ ]. Then list the winner of each pair, giving the number of seconds the winner won by. At the end declare which team won based on which team had the most wins. Below is a sample match.

Enter the times for the Chevy cars: 5.4 7.2 4.0 9.1 5.8 3.9

Enter the times for the corresponding Ford cars: 5.8 6.9 3.9 9.2 5.8 3.8

And the winners are:

Chevy by 0.4 sec

Ford by 0.3 sec

Ford by 0.1 sec

Chevy by 0.1 sec

Tie !

Ford by 0.1 sec

And the winning team is: FORD !

Accept the racing times for each of the Chevy cars into the array Chevy[ ].

Accept the racing times for each of the Ford cars into the array Ford[ ].

Then declare the wining car for each race, giving the winning time in seconds.

If the times are identical, then declare the race was a tie.

Finally, declare which team won the match, assuming a tie is possible

Submit a C++ program with the required comments. You must use at least 2 functions in the program. You can decide what you will use functions for.

The maximum number of points is 45. 10 points will be given for comments for the program and each function.
