(Integrated Development Environment) to write, compile and execute a C program. Using Visual
C++ IDE, complete the tasks below and save them on the computer. Insert the solution/answer in
this document as directed below. You must show the execution of below tasks, along with your
completed Word document to get your work graded. You must also submit this Word document
on the LMS.
Deliverables
