Chapter 11.10, Problem 11.15CP
Program Plan Intro
Structure pointer operator (->):
The structure pointer operator is used to access members of a structure using pointer variable; it is used to dereference a pointer variable instead of indirection operator (*).
Indirection operator:
An asterisk “*” is also referred as indirection operator which is used to dereferences the pointer.
- If the “*” operator is placed before a variable then the variable is referred as pointer variable.
Dot operator:
The dot “.” operator is used to access the members of a structure; the dot operator has a higher precedence than the indirection operator.
Note:
Brackets are having highest precedence when comparing with any other operator; so, when any operator with any precedence is placed inside the brackets, then the operator will be executed first.

- c++ The program reads data about two contestants from the keyboard and displays the scores and the winner of the two contestants. The program uses a data structure called Contestant for storing the scores of a contestant and a set of functions related to the data structure for processing the scores of contestants. The data structure, Contestant, contains an int variable for the contestant's ID and an array of doubles for the scores given to the contestant. Each ID must be a positive integer. Each score must fall in the range from 0.0 to 10.0 inclusive. Your job is to complete the program so that its output matches the expected outputs when testing with the same test data. First, complete everything that is required of you at the top of the file. Then complete those and only those incomplete functions according to their descriptions.
