Design and implement an algorithm to solve this problem; your solution should use user – defined functions. Do not access global variables. Use parameters! (Suggestions: int function to determine lowest of two numbers, void function to print the message) Use function prototypes; the source code for functions should follow the source code for the main function.
Input a student’s full name and four integer scores (you need getline for the name)
Average the scores – drop the lowest grade; round to the nearest integer
Formula to drop the low grade: average = (sum of all 4 scores -low score) / 3
Print out a message that includes the student name, average, and one of the following:
Exceptional for averages >= 95
Passing for 60 <= averages <95
Gotta repeat it for averages < 60.
After your program works correctly for one student, add a loop so the user can process any number of students.
What I have so far.... Please get it to run! I'm stumped!
