Your final project will be to analyze, design, and document a simple program that utilizes a good design process and incorporates sequential, selection and repetitive programming statements as well as at least one function call and the use of at least one array. The specific problem you need to solve for the final project is:
Question: Design a program that will allow a user to input a list of your family members along with their age and the state where they reside. Determine and print the average age of your family and print the names of anyone who lives in Texas.
There are 4 components of your submission including:
Note: The Program Description and Analysis were most likely delivered last week. Please resubmit those with any modifications based on the grade and feedback from the professor.
- Program Description: A detailed, clear description of the program you are building.
- Analysis: Demonstrates your thought process and steps used to analyze the problem. Be sure to include the required input and output and how you will obtain the required output from the given input. Also, include your variable names and definitions. Be sure to describe the necessary formulas and sample calculations that might be needed. Discuss the functions you plan to use and how you will use arrays. Be sure to discuss the types of programming statements that will be used and why.
- Test plan: Prepare at least 3 sets of input data (test data) along with their expected output for testing your program. Your test data can be presented in the form of a table as follows (note: feel free to adapt to your design).
- Pseudocode: Provide pseudocode of your overall design that fulfills the requirements of the project
All of these components should be placed in your Word document (see below for details).
Additional details about the program you need to write:
- Family sizes vary; however, you should design to be able to enter at least 50 family members.
- Your test cases should have at least 5 family members.
- Be sure to separate some functionality into functions or submodules. Having all functionality in the main module is not a good design.
- Your design should consider how to indicate the family member entry is complete.
- Carefully consider the best data type for each of your variables (e.g. when to use Float versus Integers versus Strings).
