You have again been hired to finish a date-related program started by another developer. (It is believed that this developer, after watching one too many online videos about conspiracy theories, suddenly departed late one evening to seek a job with the lizard people who control Denver International Airport.)

The program should prompt the user to enter a month and year, then display a message indicating if the year is a leap year or not, the number of days in the month, and the weekday names of the first and last days of the month:

Enter a month number (Jan=1, Feb=2, etc.): 6
Enter a year with four digits (1600-2400): 1972

The year 1972 is a leap year.
June 1972 has 30 days.
The first day of the month is a Thursday.
The last day of the month is a Friday.

The programmer did not feel it was necessary to create any analysis or design documentation, but did leave behind some partially completed source code (http://cis.scc.losrios.edu/~krofb/cisp301/labs/exam02-code/) . A scrap of paper (http://cis.scc.losrios.edu/~krofb/cisp301/labs/exam02-algorithm/) was also found, listing steps to determine if a year is a leap year or not, which may or may not be helpful to you.

Your task is to complete the program in ways that fulfill the original specifications, and provide some rudimentary design documentation. Note: Do not change any of the modules in the source code provided other than the ones referred to in the list below; do not add or remove any modules, change the name of a module, or change the parameter list of any module - including the name, number, data type, or order of the parameters.

1. Author's Name

Update the source code file to list yourself as the author on Line 2.

2. Month Validation

Modify the input_month module so that it uses an indefinite post-test loop to ensure that the user's input is a number from 1 to 12. (You may assume that the user always types a reasonable integer when prompted.) When the input is out of bounds, an error message is displayed and the user is prompted to reenter the month number:

Enter a month number (Jan=1, Feb=2, etc.): 15
The month must be a number from 1 to 12.

Enter a month number (Jan=1, Feb=2, etc.): 0
The month must be a number from 1 to 12.

Enter a month number (Jan=1, Feb=2, etc.): 6
Enter a year with four digits (1600-2400):

3. Year Validation

Modify the input_year module so that it uses an indefinite pre-test loop to ensure that the user's input is a number from 1600 to 2400. (You may assume that the user always types a reasonable integer when prompted.) When the input is out of bounds, an error message is displayed that indicates if the number was too big or too small, and the user is prompted to reenter the year:

Enter a year with four digits (1600-2400): 1066
The number you've entered is too small!

Enter a year with four digits (1600-2400): 3001
The number you've entered is too big!

Enter a year with four digits (1600-2400): 1972

4. Leap Year Flowchart

Draw a flowchart that correctly implements the is_leap_year module using selection structures. The module should set leap_year to the Boolean value true or false as appropriate for the year provided via the 'in' parameter. (You may assume that the year provided is greater than 1582.) Your flowchart may not make use of any logical operators (AND, OR, NOT), and may not have more than three decision diamonds.

5. Leap Year Code

Implement the is_leap_year module using C/C++ code in a manner that reasonably follows from your flowchart, and subject to the same restrictions (i.e., without using the logical operators && , || , or ! ; and testing no more than three conditions using if or else if ).

6. Leap Year Status

Modify the display_leap_year module to call the module you created in the previous step. Use the value you get back, along with one or more selection structures to display the correct message.

7. Days Per Month

Modify the get_days module so that it uses selection structures to correctly set days to 28, 29, 30 or 31 based on the month and year provided via the 'in' parameters. Your code may not use the switch statement. (Hint: You will need to call another module you've created to help determine certain values; do not duplicate code into your module that appears elsewhere in the file.)

8. Structure Chart

Draw a structure chart for the finished program. If a module is called more than once by different modules, duplicate its box and show it as a distinct child of each caller, rather than having a box with two or more parents. (Hint: The instructor's solution has sixteen module boxes; yours may have a slightly different number depening on how certain modules were implemented.)
