Star Search
A particular talent competition has 5 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 3 remaining scores. Write a program that uses these rules to calculate and display 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 5 judges.
• double calcScore() should calculate and return the average of the 3 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 5 scores. Two additional functions, described below, should be called by calcScore, which uses the returned information to determine which of the scores to drop.
• int findLowest() should find and return the lowest of the 5 scores passed to it.
int findHighest() should find and return the highest of the 5 scores passed to it.
