The Problem__:
Write a program that calculates the average of a group of test scores, where the lowest score in the group is dropped. It should use the following functions:
⚫ void getScore() should ask the user for a test score, store it in a reference param- eter variable, and validate it. This function should be called by main once for each of the five scores to be entered.
⚫ void calcAverage() should calculate and display the average of the four highest scores. This function should be called just once by main and should be passed the five scores.
⚫int findLowest() should find and return the lowest of the five scores passed to it. It should be called by calcAverage, which uses the function to determine which of the five scores to drop.
Input Validation: Do not accept test scores lower than 0 or higher than 100.
YOU MUST USE THE STATED FUNCTIONS AND COMPLETE Input VALIDATION.
**DO NOT use an ARRAY OR GLOBAL VARIABLES!!.
you MUST USE function prototyping

Four 6-letter words should be included in your program and have a theme. The word should be randomly selected when the user begins the game. After 7 incorrect guesses the user loses the game. The player wins by correctly guessing all of the letters that are part of the word. At each step, the program should remind the player of the letters he or she has already guessed, the program should not be case sensitive for input, but keep the output as uppercase letters. If the user enters the same letter twice that should count against them. Any help would be greatly appreciated as I'm stumped on how to complete this one.arrow_forward

Then the type of the weapon will be given as a char followed by the durability and damage of the weapon both as integers. The type of the weapon can EITHER be ‘b’ representing bludgeoning or ‘p’ representing piercing weapon. Based on the type, the user will give a final input; if it is a bludgeoning weapon, a material value as a string; if it is a piercing weapon, a thickness value as a double. After getting all this input, the program will simulate 5 consecutive attacks at the target with the given weapon and print out the final hit point of the target as an integer. The attack works differently for the type of the weapon as below and after each attack the weapon can be destroyed: If it is a bludgeoning weapon: dmg= (weapon damage-bludgeoning…arrow_forward
