Question
Chapter 10, Problem 17RQE
Program Plan Intro
Pointer:
Pointer will allow the user to indirectly access and manipulate the variable data contents. A pointer variable will hold the address of the data contents. If an asterisk “*” operator is present before the variable then that variable is referred as pointer variable. An asterisk “*” is also referred as indirection operator is used to dereferences the pointer.
Representing array using pointer notation:
- In general array will have a continuous allocation of memory bytes, to represent the values present in the array it can be represented using its subscript value.
- So to represent the values using pointer notation with an indirection operator the name of the array plus the subscript representing the value needs to be specified.
- When we represent only the array name, it will indicate the first element of the array.
- To represent the next element we need to increment the values by one to find the proceeding elements of the array.

A(n) _________ may be used to pass arguments to the constructors of elements in anobject array.
int grades[100];
int i;
for (i=0;i <= 100;i++)
{
grades[i) = 100;

The program contain a class called GradeRegister. This class has two data members known as CourseName and an array of integer called Grades. The array Grades keep the grades of students of the same course. GradeRegister class have three methods as GetHighestGrade(), GetLowestGrade() and GetAverageGrade().The method GetHighestGrade return the maximum grade as integer from the array Grades and GetLowestGrade return the minimum grade value as integer from the array Grades. The GetAverageGrade method will return the average of grades from Grades array as float value.

- 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_forwardLargest/Smallest Array Values Write a program that lets the user enter 10 values into an array.

(Note: distinct means unique or different. So if the user enters ten 5s, there is only one distinct number, which is 5.) You may use arrays and/or ArrayLists. All ten integers should be read from the user with one prompt. The integers entered should not be limited to any particular range. You may assume that the user will enter only valid integers. You must break the problem down into these separate methods that are each called from the main method: getUserInput findDistinctNumbers outputResults No global variables are allowed. Following is a sample run of the program: Enter ten integers separated by spaces: 1 2 -3 2 1 6 -3 -4 2 The number of distinct numbers is 5 The distinct numbers are 1 2 -3 6 -4arrow_forward
