The output of the program is a countdown starting from the input integer until an integer where both digits are identical. End with a newline.

Use a while loop. Compare the digits; do not write a large if-else for all possible same-digit numbers (11, 22, 33,.... 99), as that approach would be cumbersome for larger ranges.

Define a function named FeetToSteps that takes a double as a parameter, representing the number of feet walked, and returns the number of steps walked as an integer by type casting. Then, write a main program that reads the number of feet walked as an input, calls function FeetToSteps() with the input as an argument, and outputs the number of steps returned from FeetToSteps(). Use floating-point arithmetic to perform the conversion. Note: Type casting a double to an integer may affect the result's accuracy. Ex: If the input is: 150.5 the output is: 60 The program must define and call a function: int FeetToSteps (double userFeet) Run main.cpp 1 #include 2 #include 3 using namespace std; 4 5 /* Define your function here */ 6 7 int main() { 8 / Type your code here */ 9 10 return 0; 11 12 Open new tab Dock History Tutorial ENG 3:05 PMarrow_forward
