Write a program that will predict the size of a population of organisms. The program should ask the user for the starting number of organisms, their average daily population increase (as a percentage, expressed as a fraction in decimal form: for example 0.052 would mean a 5.2% increase each day), and the number of days they will multiply. A loop should display the size of the population for each day. Input Validation. Do not accept a number less than 2 for the starting size of the population. If the user fails to satisfy this print a line with this message "The starting number of organisms must be at least 2.", display the prompt again and try to read the value. Similarly, do not accept a negative number for average daily population increase, using the message "The average daily population increase must be a positive value." and retrying. Finally, do not accept a number less than 1 for the number of days they will multiply and use the message "The number of days must be at least 1."
