COSC 117

Programming Assignment #2

DESCRIPTION:  Produce a summary of check activity for a month.  It should print the check number and the amount for each check given by the user from the keyboard.  It will also show any checks missing in the sequence by producing dashes as the amount.  It will print out the total number of checks, the total amount of all the checks, the total number of large checks (checks over $500.00 which will be flagged for reference) written, the total of low checks( checks under $1.50 which are also flagged to encourage such customers to use debit cards) as well as the average of all checks and the average of the normal (those not large or small) checks. 

Clarification:  You can assume that the user will input the checks in ascending order although there may be missing checks in the sequence.   

Please input a check number and a negative number to quit
