Using C++ Write a void function GetYear that prompts for and inputs the year the operator was born (type int) from standard input. The function returns the user’s birth year through the parameter list (use pass by reference) unless the user enters an invalid year, in which case a BadYear exception is thrown. To test for a bad year, think about the range of acceptable years. It must be 4 digits (i.e. 1982) and it cannot be greater than the current year (the user obviously cannot be born in a calander year that has yet to happen!
