Task (assessed)

This task will help you practice working with arrays, variables, built-in data types, and control structures in C++. Moreover, it assesses the definition of a class, object instantiation, and how to manage data using objects.

Problem Statement

You are tasked with writing a C++ program to analyse the scores of a class of students. Your program should define a Student class to store individual student scores and then calculate and display various statistics based on the provided scores.

Instructions

1. Define a class named Student with the following attributes:
   • An integer variable named score to store the student's score.
   • A constructor that takes an integer parameter and initializes the score attribute.
   • A method for setting the score of a student.
2. Calculate and display the following statistics:
   • The average score of the students.
   • The highest score achieved by a student.
   • The lowest score achieved by a student.
   • The number of students who scored above the average.
   • The number of students who scored below the average.

NB: You don't need to worry about instantiating and initialising objects of class Student, that is done within the test script as in the following image. Please do not create a main() function in the file you should edit.

Note: You should use appropriate control structures (loops, conditionals) and class methods to implement the required functionality.
