Specifications
The batting average is the total number of at bats for which the player earned at least one base divided by the number of at bats.

The slugging percentage is the total number of bases earned divided by the number of at bats.

Use an array to store the at-bat results for each player.

Validate the input like this:

For number of at bats, the user must enter an integer from 1 to 30.
For each at bat, the user must enter 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4.
Format the batting average and slugging percent to show three decimal digits.

Calculate the statistics for another player only if the user enters ‘y’ or ‘Y’ at the ‘Another player?’ prompt. Otherwise, end the application.
