Write a program to determine the length of bursts of zero's in a list of N numbers stored in an List. The program should record the length of the bursts of zero's in another List. The program should then print the lengths of the bursts.

Using this second List with the lengths of the bursts, it should also compute and print the following: the average length of the bursts, the minimum burst length, the maximum burst length, and the total number of zeros (the sum of the burst lengths). 

Your program should:

1. Prompt the user for the size of the list (N). Then it should prompt the user to enter N numbers and store them into an list called burstList. Note, you should specify the maximum size of N allowed (based on how large you declare your List).

2. Given N and list, your program should compute the lengths of the bursts of zeros and store them in an list called BurstLengths. After computing and storing the burst lengths you should terminate your BurstLengths list with a sentinel (-1). Use a for loop in this step.

3. Given the BurstLengths List with a sentinel (-1), use a while loop to print the list of burst lengths. Format this nicely in a table with headings.

4. Given the BurstLengths List with a sentinel (-1), compute and then print the following information:

a. Average burst length

b. Minimum burst length

c. Maximum burst length

d. Total number of zeros
