Explanation of Solution

“cctype” header file:

The “cctype” header file is used to declare a set of function to categorize the individual characters in C++. The functions in that header file test a single character argument and return either true or false.

The “isalpha” and “isdigit” functions must need “cctype” header file for testing the character argument.

isalpha – check the given letter is alphabet or not

isdigit – check the given letter is digit or not.

isalpha:

If the argument is the letter either uppercase or lowercase, it return true otherwise it return false.

Example:

Consider the example of “isalpha” is as follows:

//declare and initialize the value to the variable

char c = 'a';

//check the condition

if (isalpha (c))

{

//display the output

cout << "This is a letter";

}

Here, the “c” variable holds the value of “a”. The above “if” condition is used to check if the variable “c” is an alphabet by using “isalpha” character function.

isdigit:

If the argument is a digit, it return true otherwise it return false.

Example:

Consider the example of “isdigit” is as follows:

//declare and initialize the value to the variable

char c = '0';

//check the condition

if ( isdigit (c))

{

//display the output

cout << "This is a digit";

}

Here, the “c” variable holds the value of “0”. The above “if” condition is used to check if the variable “c” is a digit by using “isdigit” character function.

Therefore, the “cctype” header file is used to test a single character argument for “isalpha” and “isdigit” function.

PLLLLLLLSSSSSSS Answer Technology College Muscat hired you as a programmer to automate their manual StudentRegistration System. The college requires you to develop a C++ program to manage theirStudents’ personal and academic record.You are required to develop a C++ program using C++ structures, arrays, and userdefined functions.The college stores each student’s full name, a maximum of 30 character long, student’sage, numeric student’s ID number of 8 digits long, student’s modules enrolled andstudent’s module result.You are required to implement 3 different functions, a function to get/input all the data of astudent from a user. A function to get/input student’s modules and result against eachmodule and to calculate average marks of each students, and a function to display allstudents’ personal and academic data. You are required to demonstrate storing of 5students and displaying their stored data with average marks. You are also required tocalculate and display the overall result…
