Question

Use following code and modify in the end to get median. Sorting is not needed as it already sorted.

#include <stdio.h>

#define MAX_SCORE 20
#define MAX_SIZE 1000

int main() {
int i = 0 ; // used as index into array
int n = 0 ; // number of items in array
int r ; // used to ensure user enters an integer
double average ; // average of numbers entered by user
double num ; // total number of items in array

int A[MAX_SIZE] ; // will hold the scores

n = 0 ;
i = 0 ;

// read in the scores into array A[]
while (1) {
r = scanf("%d", &A[i] ) ;

// end of input?
if ( r <= 0 ) {
break ;
}

i = i + 1 ;

// exceeded array size?
if (i >= MAX_SIZE) {
break ;
}
}

// Make n the number of items stored in A[]
n = i ;

// compute the average

int sum = 0 ;

for (i = 0 ; i < n ; i++) {
sum = sum + A[i] ;
}

num = n ; // num is double
average = sum / num ;

printf ("The average score is: %f\n", average) ;


// *****
// ***** TODO
// *****
// Declare a new count[] array.
int count[MAX_SCORE + 1] ;

// Initialize each element of count[] to 0 using a for loop.
for(i = 0; i < (MAX_SCORE + 1); i++) {
count[i]=0;
}

// Iterate through the elements of the A[] array and update count[] in
// each iteration.
for(i = 0; i < n; i++) {
count[A[i]]++;
}

//
// Iterate through the count[] array and print out the number of times
// that each score appeared.
for(i = 0; i < (MAX_SCORE + 1); i++) {
printf("count[%d] is %d. \n",i,count[i]);
}

// Iterate through the elements of the count[] array to find the maximum
// count and the score with the maximum count.
int mode = 0;
for(i = 0; i < (MAX_SCORE + 1); i++) {
if(count[i] > count[mode]) {
mode = i;
}
}

// Print out the score that has the highest count and the number of
// times that score appeared.
printf("The mode of the scores is %d. It occurred %d times.\n",mode,count[mode]);

return 0 ;
}

 

Example Compilation and Execution:

The number of scores is 21.
The average score is: 13.047619
count[0] is 0.
count[1] is 1.
count[2] is 2.
count[3] is 0.
count[4] is 0.
count[5] is 0.
count[6] is 0.
count[7] is 1.
count[8] is 1.
count[9] is 1.
count[10] is 0.
count[11] is 1.
count[12] is 2.
count[13] is 1.
count[14] is 0.
count[15] is 1.
count[16] is 2.
count[17] is 2.
count[18] is 1.
count[19] is 2.
count[20] is 3.
The mode of the scores is 20. It occurred 3 times.
The median score is 15.

Notes:

Think about how to calculate the median. You already have the count[ ] array computed.
If you iterate through the count[ ] array, you should be able to determine when half of the scores (n/2 when n is even and (n+1)/2 when n is odd) have been encountered. Then you have the median. Do this by hand on a small example first.
NOTE: There is no need to modify the A array to find the median. Do NOT modify it!
