Problem Statement

Define a `Counter` class with a public integer `count`. Create a standalone function `void increment(Counter& c)` that accepts the object by reference and adds 1 to `count`. Read an integer to set the initial count, pass the object to `increment`, and print “Count: [count]”.

Input Format

A single integer.

Output Format

Print the incremented count.

Constraints

None

Sample Input

Sample Output

Count: 6

Explanation

Passing an object by reference (`&`) allows the function to modify the original object's data in memory rather than operating on a local copy.

Starter Code

#include <iostream>

class Counter {
public:
    // Define count here
};

// Define increment() here

int main() {
    // Instantiate, read input, call increment, and print
    return 0;
}
