Open the file and follow the directions given in the comments throughout the script. Add code below each of the comments one step at a time. Check your work incrementally as you go. You should add any additional variable declarations or statements you find necessary. Make sure you add a file header comment per the class standards.
-
Test the Program
Make sure to test your program with multiple sets of numbers. Try 5 positive numbers, 5 negative numbers and then a mix of positive and negative.

Try Changing the Array Size
When you are finished testing your program, try changing the size of the array and see if the program still works correctly. You should only have to change the size in one place.
