GaltonBoard Requirements In the starter code you will find a program to simulate a Galton Board. The code for the simulation is given. It assumes these formal parameters: a Galton Board, the board size and the number of tests to run. Function stubs are provided for the following functions: – int** createNewBoard (int rows); – void dislay (int* board [], int rows); – void freeBoard (int* board [], int rows); You must fill in the details of the function stubs to dynamically allocate the board, display it and free it once the program is done using it. This will allow you to practice dynamic allocation and deletion of a 2-dimensional jagged array. Directions The original problem can be found in Big C++ 3ed chapter 7.5. Read chapter sections 7.1 – 7.4 for supporting content on pointers and dynamic allocation (though 7.3 is not needed for this assignment, it will be needed later). The lectures and narrated power points with more details are on Blackboard. – int** createNewBoard (int rows); Dynamically allocate the board array using the new operator that we learned about in class. Then loop to allocate the individual rows. Don’t forget to initialize the array elements to 0. This can be done directly when allocating the arrays (the same as if statically allocated) or in a loop afterwards. – void dislay (int* board [], int rows); Display the individual values in a row of the array on a single line spaced 4 characters apart using setw(4) as part of the cout statement. – void freeBoard (int* board [], int rows); Deallocate the Galton board now that we’re done using it. Use the delete operator that we learned about in class. Remember the order that we deallocate is the reverse order that we used to create the board. Sample Use Case Enter the size of the board: 7 Enter the number of tests: 500 Enter the random seed: 17 500 248 252 135 239 126 72 188 182 58 36 132 177 124 31 19 71 180 139 71 20 7 45 130 155 105 46 12
