C++:

a) Write a program that allows the user to enter the last names of five candidates in a local election and the number of votes received by each candidate. The program should then output each candidates name, the number of votes received, and the percentage of the total votes received by the candidate. Your program should also output the winner of the election. Your program should contain two functions: Function sumVotes which receives an array of integers as argument and returns the total votes of the five candidates; Function winnerIndex which receives an array of strings as argument and returns the winner of the election.

b) Modify the program by using dynamic arrays. Your program should prompt the user to input the number of candidates and then it creates the appropriate arrays to hold the information entered by the user (i.e., it declares a pointer of strings for the candidates and a pointer of integers for the number of votes received for each candidate).

A sample output is Candidate Votes Received % of Total Votes Victoria Thomas Zakary Williams Adam 5000 4000 6000 2500 1800 25.91 20.73 31.09 12.95 9.33 Total The Winner of the Election is Zakary Hint: use stream manipulators to format numeric output. 19300
