shown to student

Define a function <tt>drawSquare</tt> that takes an integer and char parameter
and prints a square:
the integer indicates the side length of the square to draw, and
the character indicates what character to use to draw the square.
See the example below.

Template / Reference solution

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

// prints an ASCII square to stdout (monitor)
// of side length, s, using character, c
// e.g. calling drawSquare(4, '*') should yield
// ****
// * *
// * *

\[ void ]\ drawSquare (\[ int s, char c ]\) {
