Design a program that lets the user enter the total rainfall for each of 12 months into a list. The program should calculate and display the total rainfall for the year, the average monthly rainfall, and the months with the highest and lowest amounts.

Write a program that uses a structure to store the following weather data for a particular month: Total Rainfall High Temperature Low Temperature Average Temperature The program should have an array of 12 structures to hold weather data for an entire year. When the program runs, it should ask the user to enter data for each month. (The average temperature should be calculated.) Once the data are entered for all the months, the program should calculate and display the average monthly rainfall, the total rainfall for the year, the highest and lowest temperatures for the year (and the months they occurred in), and the average of all the monthly average temperatures. Input Validation: Only accept temperatures within the range between –100 and +140 degrees Fahrenheit.

Write a program that lets the user enter 10 values into an array. The program should then display the largest and smallest values stored in the array.

Question

Write a program that lets the user enter the total rainfall for each of 12 months into an array of doubles. The program should calculate and display the total rainfall for the year, the average monthly rainfall, and the months with the highest and lowest amounts. Input Validation: Do not accept negative numbers for monthly rainfall figures.

By using C++, we write a program. that displays the following after taking the required data from user:

The total rainfall for the year.
The average monthly rainfall.
The month (displayed as a string) with the highest amount of rainfall.
The month (displayed as a string) with the lowest amount of rainfall.

We use for loop to read values into an array from the user and then use while loop for each value read to validate input. Then loop again on the array to find the lowest and highest monthly rainfalls using if statements. For each element looped on, add it to the accumulator variable total. Get the monthly average by dividing the total by $12$ and typecasting to double to prevent integer division.

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

int main(){
    const int MONTHS = 12;
    double rainfall[MONTHS];
    // get the total rainfall from user for each month
    for(unsigned i=0;i<MONTHS;i++){
        cout<<"Please enter the total rainfall of month ["<<(i+1)<<"]\n";
        cout<<"Total rainfall is : ";
        cin>>rainfall[i];
        // perform input validation
        while(rainfall[i]<0){
            // as long as the value is less than 0, i.e. negative
            // ask user to enter it again
            cout<<"The value should not be negative.\n";
            cout<<"Enter the rainfall again : ";
            cin>>rainfall[i];
        }
    }
    
    // now compute statistics
    double total,avg;
    unsigned highestMonth,lowestMonth;
    // total is the sum of all rainfalls
    // avg = total/12
    // initialize highestMonth & lowestMonth to the first
    highestMonth = lowestMonth = 0;
    // initialize total with 0
    total = 0.0;
