# The program then loops through each employee and reports if their earnings is within 5,000 of the average earnings
# of all employees.
# Sample interaction:
#     Please enter the employee name or * to finish: d
#     Please enter the salary in thousands for d: 50
#     Please enter the employee name or * to finish: e
#     Please enter the salary in thousands for e: 48
#     Please enter the employee name or * to finish: f
#     Please enter the salary in thousands for f: 52
#     Please enter the employee name or * to finish: g
#     Please enter the salary in thousands for g: 0.010
#     Please enter the employee name or * to finish: h
#     Please enter the salary in thousands for h: 100
#     Please enter the employee name or * to finish: *
#     d, 50000.00
#     e, 48000.00
#     f, 52000.00
