Question

in c++

Write a program to generate a random number between 1 - 100, and then display which quartile the number falls in.

First quartile is 1 - 25
Second quartile is 26 - 50
Third quartile is 51 - 75
Fourth quartile is 76 - 100
To generate a random number, follow these steps:

include necessary header files
#include <cstdlib> //for random functions
#include <ctime> //for time functions
set constants for the minimum and maximum values of the desired range
const int MIN_VALUE = 1; //minimum range value
const int MAX_VALUE = 100; //maximum range value
seed the random number generator (RNG) with a unique unsigned int value - system time!
unsigned seed = time(0); //system time in seconds since 1/1/1970
srand(seed); //seed the RNG
get a random number in the desired range
int num = (rand() % (MAX_VALUE - MIN_VALUE + 1)) + MIN_VALUE;
The program should:

contain header comments as shown in class
display a "hello" message (more descriptive than shown in sample)
generate a random number between 1 - 100
display the number back to the user
determine which quartile the number falls in (using any combination of if, else, and else if)
display the quartile back to the user
display a "goodbye" message (more descriptive than shown in sample)
SAMPLE OUTPUT: (changes every time program is run...)
Hello.
Random number generated: 3737 falls in the second quartile (26 - 50)
