GUI-based program that lets the user enter the initial height from which the ball is dropped and the number of times the ball is allowed to continue bouncing. Output should be the total distance traveled by the ball. If a ball dropped from a height of 10 feet bounces 6 feet high, the index is 0.6, and the total distance traveled by the ball is 16 feet after one bounce. If the ball were to continue bouncing, the distance after two bounces would be 10ft + 6ft + 6ft + 3.6ft = 25.6ft. Note that the distance traveled for each successive bounce is the distance to the floor plus 0.6 of that distance as the ball comes back up.
