The objective here is to make a program that calculates variables and averages using different functions with strings inside parameters. The program title looks something like this
~Will's car sales has 5 associates that works for him and he wants to award the associate with the highest sales each month with a bonus. The associates names are Jacob, James, Isaiah, Mara and Janice. The program will be written using functions as described below. The program will ask "Will" for the associates 5 sales values and then find the winner of that month's bonus, printing out the name and the month's highest sales. In addition, the program will also output the average sales for the month.~
I understand how to do it but I'm failing to see where to plug things in at. When I ran it the first time it was smooth, but the application of the strings were not getting executed properly, and I ended up combining functions to find two different solutions...Please help me gurus. Source code below is what I got. I wiped the entire thing clean except for the bar essentials, and even then I'm not sure if the strings are correctly put in. The void welcome function is working properly of course.

}

{
//add five sales values then divide by 5
return 0.0; //fix returned value return average
