Question

The process of finding the largest number (i.e.,the maximum of a group of numbers) is used frequently in computerapplications. For example, a program that determines the winner ofa sales contest inputs the number of units sold by eachsalesperson. The salesperson who sells the most units wins thecontest. Write a pseudocode program, then a C++ program that uses awhile statement to determine and print the largest numberof 10 numbers input by the user and the smallest number. Yourprogram should use three variables, as follows:

counter:

A counter to count to 10 (i.e., to keep track ofhow many numbers have been input and to determine when all 10numbers have been processed).

number:

The current number input to the program.

largest:

The largest number found so far.

so far I have this:

counter:

A counter to count to 10 (i.e., to keep track ofhow many numbers have been input and to determine when all 10numbers have been processed).

number:

The current number input to the program.

largest:

The largest number found so far.

Explanation / Answer

#include using std::cout; using std::cin; using std::endl; //function main begins program execution int main() {     int counter;     int number;     int largest;     int smallest;        counter=0;     largest=0;     smallest=0; /* if smallest is zero, and yournumbers are greater than zero, then zero will always remain thesmallest */        cout
