“If you don’t like the weather in these parts,” the old-timer said with a twinkle in his eye, “wait a few minutes.”

Let’s find out if he’s right. We’ll take ten temperatures at one-minute intervals and see the variation. I’ll start like this:

double temp1; sout << "Enter a temperature: "; sin >> temp1;

double temp2; sout << "Enter a temperature: "; sin >> temp2;

double temp3; sout << "Enter a temperature: "; sin >> temp3;

That’s getting old fast. Maybe there’s a better way to store ten numbers. ...
