Question: Create a server process that accepts input from each of several clients. One at a time, a client sends a struct containing three values: a job name, a CPU burst (an integer), and a private FIFO name through a FIFO named Common_FIFO. The server calculates a running total of all CPU bursts it has received so far from the clients, and sends the current running total of CPU bursts back to the current client through its individual private FIFO. The server prints the name of the job, the value from the current client, and the current running total. After three clients have submitted their structs, the server calculates the average of all integers submitted by the clients.

A client prompts the user to enter an integer value between 1 and 16. If the integer is not in that range, continue to prompt the user for a valid integer. The current running total that is sent to the client from the server is also displayed on the client.

For example:
client 1 sends: Hmwk_6.c, 15, FIFO_4567 -> server calculates total as 15 and sends 15 to client 1
client 2 sends: OS_24, 9, FIFO_1238 -> server calculates total as 24 and sends 24 to client 2
client 3 sends: Prog_1.c, 8, FIFO_6789 -> server calculates total as 32 and sends 32 to client 3
... the server echoes all the values it receives from the clients
... the server prints "Average of 3 input values is 10.67 "
... to format this nicely, you can use: printf("%.2f", average);

Common_FIFO is created and opened once, and receives one struct input per client.

Prepare your own test data. For testing purposes, burst values will be those given in the example. Your program should allow one of the clients to input a value of 0, then 28 before it submits a valid integer in the range.
