The program performs the following key functions:


  1. Takes user input for the three scores, each between 0 and 100.
  2. Validates that the entered scores are numbers within the correct range.
  3. Calculates the average of the three scores.
  4. Determines the letter grade (A–F) based on the calculated average:


A: 90–100

B: 80–89

C: 70–79

D: 60–69

F: below 60


Displays the results: individual scores, average score (formatted to 2 decimal places), and final letter grade.
