  3. * DISPLAY PERSONAL BEST HEIGHT
  4. * ______________________________________________________________________________
  5. * The program asks the user to enter the name of a pole vaulter, along with the
  6. * dates and heights (in meters) of the athlete's three best vaults. It ensures 
  7. * that each height entered is within the valid range of 2.0 to 5.0 meters by 
  8. *  checking the input and prompting the user agian if the value is outside this
  9. * range.
  10. * 
  11. * Computation is based on the Formula:
  12. *	Order runners by increasing time:
  13. *		bestHeight   : 1st place
  14. *		secondHeight : 2nd place
  15. *       thirdHeight  : 3rd place
  16. * ____________________________________________________________________________
  17. * INPUT
  18. *	Athlete's Name 
  19. *	Dates Vaulted : 3 dates of different atttempted vaults 
  20. *	Height of Vault : 3 diferent heights (Between 2.0 - 5.0 meters)
  21. * 
  22. * OUTPUT
  23. *	1st Best : athlete's best height
  24. *	2nd Best : athlete's second best height
  25. *	3ed Best : athlete's third best height
