16.3. Report - 25 points

For your final project report, you will document your work in a clear, organized format that demonstrates both the development process and functionality of your program. This report should serve as a comprehensive guide, allowing someone unfamiliar with your project to understand its purpose, design, and how to use it effectively. Each section should be concise yet informative, focusing on your project’s key components, such as the inputs and outputs, user-defined functions, and any unique features you’ve implemented. Use the provided prompts to structure your report, ensuring that each area of your project is explained in detail.
