Write a C++ program that generates random numbers as follows: (i) Prompts the user for lower, upper and count. Assume all are integers. (ii) Generates "count" random integers in the range [lower, upper], and displays them to the user. (iii) Determines and displays the smallest and largest of the generated set.

Step 1
The provided program uses the srand() and rand() functions from the cstdlib library to generate random numbers. The time(0) argument passed to srand() seeds the random number generator with the current time, ensuring that different sequences of random numbers will be generated each time the program is run.
The rand() function generates a random number in the range 0 to RAND_MAX, and the % operator is used to reduce the range to the desired interval [lower, upper].
