This is an individual assignment, group work is not permitted
Weighting: 10% of your final mark for the unit Late submission:
• By submitting a Special Consideration Form or visit this link: https://lms.monashcollege.edu.au/course/view.php?id=1331
• Or, without special consideration, you lose 5% per day that you submit late (including weekends). Submissions will not be accepted more than 14 days late. This means that if you got Y marks, only (Y – Y×n×0.05) will be counted where n is the number of days you submit late.
• Assessment items will not be accepted after more than 14 calendar days unless a Special Consideration application has been approved. This 14-day time frame does not apply to assessments due in Week 12.
Marks: This assignment will be marked out of 100 points, and count for 10% of your total unit marks.
Plagiarism: It is an academic requirement that the work you submit be original. If there is any evidence of copying (including from online sources without proper attribution), collaboration, pasting from websites or textbooks, Zero marks may be awarded for the whole assignment, the unit or you may be suspended or excluded from your course. Monash Colleges policies on plagiarism, collusion, and cheating are available here or see this link:
https://www.monashcollege.edu.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0010/17101/dip-assessment-policy.pdf
Further Note: When you are asked to use Internet resources to answer a question, this does not mean copy- pasting text from websites. Write answers in your own words such that your understanding of the answer is evident. Acknowledge any sources by citing them.
Submission Instructions:
Your project must be submitted as a CLion project, including all header and code files, and any appropriate text files to ensure the program compiles and runs.
You may complete the tasks in your preferred IDE, however you MUST create a CLion in order to submit. Your project folder must be identified by using your name and assignment number, such as YourFistNameLastName_A1.
The entire project folder must then be zipped up into one zip file for submission. The zipped file MUST be named “YourFistNameLastName_A1.zip”. This zip file must be submitted via the Moodle assignment submission page.
Explicit assessment criteria are provided, however please note you will also be assessed on the following broad criteria:
✓ Meeting functional requirements as described in the exercise description.

Demonstrating a solid understanding of object-oriented design and C++ coding, including good practice. Following the Unit Programming Style Guide.
Creating solutions that are as efficient and extensible as possible.
Foundations of C++ Assignment 1 – Task-Oriented Project
NOTE! Your submitted program MUST compile and run. Any submission that does not compile will automatically be awarded a 50 marks penalty. This means it is your responsibility to continually compile and test your code as you build it.
You have just joined a new multimedia company called MonashSchool. As a new employee, you have been tasked with creating a text-based prototype for a new maths tool the business has been asked to create by a major client called “The Results Statistics generator”.
Your job is to demonstrate some of the basic functionality of the program, which will be further developed by the team of programmers after you finish the prototype. To do this you will complete a series of tasks, each building upon the previous task.
Task List:
◻ Your project must include an application file – correctly formatted including variable and function declarations
◻ Create and display a menu that accesses each of the following functions of the program.
◻ Read data from a file and display it as an information screen about the application.
◻ Read some sample data from a file and store it in appropriate variables.
◻ Generate a statistical pattern using the stored data and display the result.
◻ Save new statistical pattern to file, at the user’s request, appending each new pattern saved.
◻ Load all saved data from the saved file (if required) and display the contents.
Task 1: Create and Display a Menu
Your first task is to create and display a menu, just like the one shown here. In the example, option [1] has been selected, terminating the program.
Create a function called runMenu() and call it from the main() function.
From this function, the user must be able to select any of the displayed options as often as they want before ending
the program.
Ensure that you validate the user’s input so that only the options displayed can be chosen.
You should process the options as numeric such as [1] for ending the program, [2] for displaying the information, etc.
NOTE! Your submitted files must be correctly identified and submitted (as described above). Any submission that does not comply will receive an automatic 20 marks penalty (applied after
marking). Your CLion project should include all .cpp, .h and .txt files.
NOTE! Your tutor may ask you to program part of your assignment in class to determine that you have completed the work yourself. Failure to do this to an acceptable level will result in you being
referred to the Subject Leader for plagiarism.

Task 2: Display an Information Screen
Your next task is to display some information about the application, just like the one shown here.
Create a function called displayText() and call it from the runMenu() function, when option [2] Display “About”
Information is selected.
This function must accept a filename as a parameter (“About.txt”) and successfully read and display the data.
You must also allow the user some time to read the displayed information before returning them to the menu.
You can copy About.txt into the appropriate folder to read and display, instead of creating your own. However, you may need to modify the format of the data, depending on how you intend to import it into your program.
You may create your own information, if you wish. If you do, keep it short!
Update the file to add your details (such as trimester, unit, …)
Task 3: Read and Store Data from a File
Your next task is to read and store data elements, from a text file which contains marks for 100 students in 10 assessments. And store this data in appropriate variables. Create a function called createLists() and call it from the runMenu() function, when option [3] Read and Store Data from File is selected.
This function must accept a filename as a parameter (“*.txt”) and successfully read and store the data. The data is to be stored in a collection variable named progressData (collection variable means array or vector).
Apply appropriate data validation and display suitable error messages where required.
You may also be required to manipulate the string data, using appropriate string methods when displaying it.
Note: read the provided file (Results.txt) with results of 100 students for 10 assessments.

Task 4: Generate and Display a Statistics Pattern
Your next task is to generate a Statistics Pattern and display the result as a concatenated or formatted string. Create a function called generateTable() and call it from the runMenu() function, when [4] Generate a
Statistics Pattern is selected.
This function must return a concatenated or formatted string using input from the user (answering the question to set
the parameters for number of students in class) and use the answer to generate the contents of the table.
You will need to apply a few different string manipulation techniques to achieve the desired result. Think through the process carefully before you start to write your code. Hint: work it out using pen and paper first.
Ensure that the collection variable (progressData) has content before trying to select each element, to stop the program from crashing.
This variable must be reusable, so also think of ways in which to reset the data so that any subsequent Tables generated are not contaminated by old data.
You can break this function into smaller sub-functions, if you find this will make the coding easier for you. Your marks will not be affected either way.
file you read contains marks for 100 students. You can choose any number between 1-100 to generate a statistics
pattern for a definite number. The file contains marks for 10 different assessments. Users can generate a random
If option 4 has been selected before option 3
number to pick one of the assessments to generate a statistics table.
Foundations of C++ Assignment 1 – Task-Oriented Project
See screenshot for an example of the required output.
Task 5: Save the Statistics Table to a File
Your next task is to save the Statistics Table to a file, called “savedProgressData.txt”. In this task you must:
⬥ display the last generated Statistics Table ⬥ ask the user if they want to save it
▪ if so, add it to any existing data in the file
▪ if not, do nothing
return to the menu when the task is complete
Create a function called saveData() and call it from the runMenu() function, when option [5] Save a Character to file is selected.
Use the screenshot as a guide for your display and input request. You should also inform the user when the data is saved, before returning to the menu.
Foundations of C++ Assignment 1 – Task-Oriented Project
Task 6: Display Tally Statistics from a File
Your final task is loading the saved Statistic Tables from the “savedProgressData.txt” and displaying them
appropriately.
How you achieve this is dependent upon how you saved the data. Ideally, the display should be the same as the way you displayed the Statistics Table when you generated it.
Use the screenshot as a guide for your display – these Statistics Tables are being displayed in the same way as they were originally generated.
You must also load this data into the progressData collection variable first, then display the saved data. Things you may need to consider:
⬥ Do the collection lists need to be initialised before you display the saved data? ⬥ How have you saved the data?
▪ Did you save the random numbers for each element type?
▪ Did you save the completed strings?
▪ Did you use another method?
⬥ How will you display the data after it is read from the saved data file?
▪ Which method is the most efficient way to display it?
⬥ How will you ensure that the user has time to read the output before returning to the menu?
