🚀 Programming Example

Using switch statement, write a menu driven program for the following:

To find and display the sum of the series given below:
S = x¹ - x² + x³ - x⁴ + x⁵ .......... - x²⁰
(where x = 2)

To display the following series:
1 11 111 1111 11111

For an incorrect option, an appropriate error message should be displayed.
