This homework must be submitted by 8pm on the due date to get any credit.

You will be writing a homework using functions to get a list of integers from a user and then find statistics of the given list of integers. You are not allowed to use any built in functions for finding the calculations in this assignment.

The functions required for this assignment will be:

1. printMenu()-Prints a menu of options to the screen
2. getList()-Gets list of integers from user using a while loop and returns the list
3. getMean(userList)-Returns the average of the integers contained in the list given by the user
4. getMedian(userList)-Returns the median of the integers contained in the list given by the user
5. printGraph(userList)-Prints a horizontal histogram of the elements in the list
6. getMin(userList)-Finds the lowest value in the set using a for loop and then prints value to screen
7. getMax(userList)-Returns the highest value in the set using a for loop

Example output:
