Hi C++ students,

     Page 110 Programming Project #2 of the textbook asks you to
write a function that computes the AVERAGE and the STANDARD DEVIATION
of four scores.   This program is due on Monday, June 26th.

     The function will have SIX parameters, four call by value parameters
and two call by reference parameters.   The function will be a VOID type
function.  You might name your function statistics() or twoStatistics(),
for example.

     The standard deviation exercise we did in class today should help
your understand the definition that the book gives for that statistic.

     Your functions to compute the average and to compute the standard
deviation are separate functions, so the entire program will consist
of FOUR functions, as specified on page 210.  The main() function is
one of the FOUR.

     On Thursday, June 22nd and Friday June 23rd, we will look at a
similar type problem, a function that accepts FOUR characters as input and
that produces as call by reference parameters TWO counts as output, the
vowelCount and the consonantCount. 

     See you in class.  We will have a 2nd C++ quiz on Tuesday the 27th.

     Mark
