- Subject: Data structurearrow_forwardAssignment Write a program that reads a 2D array of chars, checks, and corrects each char within this array, and print out the corrected 2D array. First the program will read the row count (rowCount) and column count (columnCount) of the 2D array, both as int values. Then, the chars constituting the 2D array will be read on a row-by-row basis. After reading the 2D array, the program will check and correct each char within the 2D array according to the rules below. This process MUST be done by using a void function by sending the appropriate cell of the 2D array with a call-by-reference fashion. • If the row index is an even number, a char can only be a lowercase English value. • If the row index is an odd number, a char can only be ?, 7', or X'. • Any incorrect value MUST be changed into Finally, the checked and corrected 2D array will be printed out to the screen.
