Context
This document contains assignments to be completed as part of the hands on for the subject Programming & Testing. Few of the assignments can be re-used in P&T project.

Guidelines
Coding Standards need to be followed, wherever necessary. Header, footer and proper documentation are necessary for all programs implemented. These assignments contain Self exercises, debugging exercises, problem solving, code review and developing test case exercises Solving these exercises methodically would provide confidence to the learner to attempt the module and online exams The estimated time would help a learner to solve problems given a deadline The assignments need to be completed in sequence on day basis as instructed by the facilitators and submitted appropriately

Day-2 Assignments
1. Write a program in C for the given requirements. The requirements are as follows: a. Obtain the employee's name, hourly rate, and hours worked from the user. b. An operation to initialize the hourly rate to a minimum wage of
$5.50 per hour and the hours worked to 0 when the employee is defined.

c. An operation to return the weekly gross pay, including overtime pay,

where overtime is paid at the rate of time-and-a-half for any hours worked over 40.

d. An operation to return the weekly net pay, based on a 30% deduction

for taxes and benefits.

e. An operation to display the employee's name, gross pay, and net pay.

2. Write a function to check Employee Name Validation The requirements are as follows: 1. Accept the name of a person 2. Declare a function fnEmployeeNameValid that accepts the name as an argument 3. The allowed characters in an employees name are: lower case and upper case alphabets and a blank space. Each individual character should be checked. (Hint: Use for loop) 4. If any other character is encountered, return a suitable error code to function main 5. Declare the error codes using #define 6. If the name contains valid characters then return a success code to function main 7. Depending on the return value display Valid name or Invalid name 3. Write a program to count the Vowels in a given string using pointers. 4. Write a program to accept two strings and to count the common characters present in the strings using a function. The function should receive a pointer to these strings and should return

the count of common characters. (Example: If the strings were Infosys and Microsoft then the count will be 4. It should be made case insensitive) 5. Write a program to automatically generate the telephone numbers. The requirements are as follows: Declare a character array to hold a 7-digit telephone number Accept the telephone number as a string. The first four digits is the department code and the last three digits is the telephone number. (Example: If the telephone number is 1001001 then 1001 is the department code and 001 is the telephone number) Write a function called as fnGenerateTelNumber that accepts the telephone number string as an argument and returns the next telephone number in the sequence. (Example : For the above telephone number the function should return next telephone number in the sequence as 1001002) Use atoi function to convert the given string to an integer. (The function atoi accepts a character array and returns the integer equivalent if the string contains only digits) Increment the telephone number and return it to the function main. Display the telephone number

6. Write a program to create a structure to store the date of birth of a person. Problem Description: Create a structure called with three short int members namely day, month and year Create an instance of this structure called as dateOfBirth Display the date of Birth in the formal day-mon-year (Example: If the date of birth is 05-06-1991 then the display should be 05-Jun-1991)

7. Write a program to Validate the date of birth of a person. Problem Description: As described in Assignment-6, Creating structures create the structure to store date of birth Write a function that accepts instance of date of birth as an argument The function should validate the date and return the VALID or INVALID code. Declare VALID and INVALID using #define The valid months are between 1 and 12 The valid days ranges between 1 to 31 Every 4th year is a leap year and every 400th year is also a leap year. (Example: year 2000 is a leap year not only because it is divisible by 4 but it is also divisible by 400. Year 1900 is not a leap year even though it is divisible by 4. Because it is also divisible by 100 and not divisible by 400) Return the error code to function main Display the message Valid Date or Invalid Date depending on the error code

8. Write a program to arrange the department codes of N departments in descending order using selection sort. 9. Write a program to arrange the telephone extension numbers of N employees in the ascending order using insertion sort. 10.

Marks in mathematics >= 60 b. Marks in physics >= 50 c. Marks in chemistry >= 40 d. Total in all three subjects >= 200 or Total in mathematics and physics >= 150 Given the marks in three subjects, Write a program to process the applications to list the eligible candidates. Assume the total number of applications to process is n. 12. Write a program to extract a portion of a character string and print the extracted string. Assume that m characters are extracted, starting with the nth character. Note : Use built in functions wherever possible. 13. Define a structure called cricket that will describe the following information: Player name, team name, batting average Using cricket, declare an array player with 50 elements and write a program to read the information about all the 50 players and print a team-wise list containing names of players with their batting average. 14. Using pointers, Write a program that receives a character string and a character as argument. Perform the following: a. A function to Count the occurrences of the given character in the character string b. A function to delete all occurrences of this character in the character string. It should display the corrected string with no blank spaces. 15. Write a function fnDay_Name that receives a number n and returns a pointer to a character string containing the name of the corresponding day. The day names should be kept in a static table of character strings local to the function.

Example: if the day is 10, then the month should be displayed as October. If the value of the day exceeds 12, appropriate Error messages should be displayed.
