Problem: The average annual water level of Lake Michigan since 1860 has been provided in the...

Problem: The average annual water level of Lake Michigan since 1860 has been provided in the file “LMWL.txt”. The file is formatted so that the first column is the year and the second column is the average water level in feet above sea level for that year. Write a program to obtain the following information:

  1. What year had the lowest average water level, and what was the level (in feet)?
  2. What has the average water level of Lake Michigan been, since 1860 (in feet)?
  3. How many years have had a water level of less than 577 ft, and which years were they?

ALL printf statements MUST be in main() unless otherwise noted.

NOTE: You can verify your results with EXCEL.

Follow these detailed instructions:

  1. First, read this document in its entirety.
  2. Include the usual (detailed) comment block including program name, author, date, and description (at a minimum), followed by your preprocessor directives.
  3. An outline (Skeleton-code) of the source code is shown below, and also posted to Blackboard as WaterLevel.c and you are REQUIRED to follow this outline. You may write other supporting functions but you MUST have at least the 4 functions prototyped. Insert appropriate printf statements where needed to get the desired output. The outline has four sections where you are to enter in your code and complete the program.
    1. Part 1: You are required to write a function called ReadFile to read the data from “LMWL.txt” into 2 arrays. Remember to check if the file exists and not read past the EOF. The error message if file does not exist can be in the function. The function will return the number of data points in the file. NOTE: Remember, the data is in pairs with the first number being a year and the second being a record of average water level in feet. Print out the data in two columns from main().
  1. Part 2: You are required to write a function called LowPoint which accepts the array of water levels, and a parameter named size which indicates the size of the array. This function returns an integer indicating the array index number that corresponds to the lowest water level. Print out the year and lowest water level from main().
  1. Part 3: You are required to write a function called AverageLevel which accepts the array of water levels and a parameter named size which indicates the size of the array. This function returns the average water level since 1860. Print out the average water level since 1860 from main().
  1. Part 4: You are required to write a function called LowYears which accepts the array of water levels, the array of years, and a parameter named size which indicates the size of the array. This function returns the number of years with a water level less than 577 ft since 1860. Print out each year and its water level from the function, and the total number of years from main().

*******MUST USE THIS OUTLINE******

OUTLINE OF THE SOURCE CODE:

#include <stdio.h>

#define MAX_SIZE 200       //can go back 200 years if necessary

int ReadFile (int data1[], double data2[]);

int LowPoint (double data[], int size);

double AverageLevel (double data[], int size);

int LowYears (double data[], int year[], int size);

int main (void) {

     int Year[MAX_SIZE];

     double WaterLevel[MAX_SIZE],Average;

     int FileLength, IndexLow, NumberLow;

     //Place any additional variable declarations required below this line

     //Describe code

     //Read file using function

    FileLength = ReadFile(Year,WaterLevel);

    //Print out data in two columns with first being year and second

    //being water level in feet

    IndexLow = LowPoint(WaterLevel,FileLength);

    //Print out the year and lowest water level

    Average = AverageLevel(WaterLevel, FileLength);

     //Print out the average water level since 1860

     NumberLow = LowYears(WaterLevel,Year,FileLength);

     //Print out the total number of years with a water level less than 577 feet

     return 0;

}

// Code for part 1 goes here, include ALL error checks.

// Code for part 2 goes here

// Code for part 3 goes here

// Code for part 4 goes here
