Scores.cpp

#include <iostream>

#include <string>

using namespace std;

void initializeArrays(string names[], int scores[], int size);

void sortData(string names[], int scores[], int size);

void displayData(const string names[], const int scores[], int size);

int main()

{

string names[5];

int scores[5];

//reading names and scores

initializeArrays(names, scores, 5);

//sorting the lists based on score.

sortData(names, scores, 5);

//displaying the contents of both arrays

displayData(names, scores, 5);

return 0;

}

void initializeArrays(string names[], int scores[], int size){

for(int i=0; i<size; i++){

cout<<"Enter the name for score #"<<(i+1)<<": ";

}

void sortData(string names[], int scores[], int size){

int temp = 0;

string tempStr = "";

for(int i=0; i < size; i++){

for(int j=1; j < (size-i); j++){

//checking max score and sorting based on it.

if(scores[j-1]< scores[j]){

//swap the elements!

//swapping scores

scores[j]=temp;

//swapping names

}

}

}

}

void displayData(const string names[], const int scores[], int size){

cout<<"Top Scorers:"<<endl;

//printing the elements up to the size of both arrays.

for(int i=0; i<size; i++){
