C++ programming Flow control is one of the main building blocks that determines how a program should run. Ghana Cocoa Growing company wishes to compare the impart of two newly acquired fertilizers on cocoa. They will do this by applying the same quantity of the two fertilizers on two similar but different cocoa plant under the same conditions (humidity, sunlight, soil moisture etc.). They will then choose the fertilizer whose crop produces the best harvest (highest quantity per square feet). As a programmer, a. Suggest a flow control method that would be used to do the comparison and explain the reason why you chose it. b. Write a flow control statement that would do the comparison in “a” above.

C++ programming

Flow control is one of the main building blocks that determines how a program should run. Ghana Cocoa Growing company wishes to compare the impart of two newly acquired fertilizers on cocoa. They will do this by applying the same quantity of the two fertilizers on two similar but different cocoa plant under the same conditions (humidity, sunlight, soil moisture etc.). They will then choose the fertilizer whose crop produces the best harvest (highest quantity per square feet). As a programmer,


a. Suggest a flow control method that would be used to do the comparison
and explain the reason why you chose it.

b. Write a flow control statement that would do the comparison in “a”
above. 

c. The Ghana Statistical Services (GSS) is interested in your statement in
“b” above but it is of the view that it is too specific. They want you to
modify it by creating a function that takes four arguments i.e. (the names
of the two fertilizer and their individual yields). The function should
return the name of the fertilizer with the greatest yield.

d. Using “c” above, write a program that request for two fertilizer name and
their respective yields. Your program should display the fertilizer with
the most yield.

e. Discuss your answer in “d” above
