Question

Write a program that outputs inflation rates for two successive years and whether the inflation is increasing or decreasing. Read from a file that you make the current price of an item and its price one year and two years ago. To calculate the inflation rate for a year, subtract the price of the item for that year from the price of the item one year ago and then divide the results by the price a year ago. Your program must contact a function to get the input, a function to calculate the results, and a function to output the results. Use appropriate parameters to pass the information in and out of the function. Do not use any global variables.
