C Compilers ## Suggested Project List: 1. Develop a C program to represent a bank account. Create a structure Customer having fields name of the depositor, account number, type of account and balance amount in the account. Perform different operations: - (1) To assign initial values - (2) To deposit an amount - (3) To withdraw an amount after checking the balance - (4) To display name and balance. Write a menu driven program to handle N number of customers. 2. Develop a menu driven C program to perform basic arithmetic operations/mathematical operations like calculators on user inputted data. 3. Develop a C program to generate results for students. Admin enters component wise marks for each subject. After entering the marks, students will know his/her SPI as well as total backlogs. 4. Develop a C program to display a minimum number of currency notes required based on the entered amount. Output will also display the total number of notes required for each currency note. Valid currency notes are 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 50, 100, 200, 500, and 2000. E.g. if the user enters 140 then the output will be '3 currency notes are required. 1*100 + 2*20 = 140'. 5. Develop a C program that allows the names of 100 candidates in a local election and the number of votes received by each candidate. The program should then output each candidate's name, the number of votes received, and the percentage of the total votes received by the candidate. Your program should also display the winner of the election. ## GUJARAT TECHNOLOGICAL UNIVERSITY Program Name: Diploma in Engineering Level: Diploma Branch: Computer Engineering / Computer Science and Engineering / Cyber System and Information Security Course / Subject Code : DI01000131 Course / Subject Name : Computer Programming Fundamentals 6. Develop a C program to find and replace all occurrences of a word in file. For example: Suppose file contains: 'I like programming. I am learning programming and programming with files is fun. Learning programming is simple and easy.' Find occurrences of 'programming' and replace it with 'C language'. 7. Please refer some problem set of CS 50 course of Harvard and practice it. ## Suggested Activities for Students: - a) Design algorithm and construct a flowchart for at least 6 problems - b) Students are encouraged to learn Visual Language programming like scratch, snap etc. - c) Undertake micro-projects in teams. - d) Prepare charts to explain use/process of the identified topic. - e) https://www.codechef.com/ , in this website very elementary programs are available, students are expected to solve those programs - f) https://code.org/, an hour of coding event may be organized and students are encouraged to participate. - g) Students are encouraged to register themselves in various MOOCs such as: Swayam, edx, Coursera, Udemy etc to further enhance their learning. - h) Encourage students to participate in different coding competitions like Hackathon, online competitions on code chef etc. - i) Encourage students to form a coding club at institute level. * * * * * * *
