Assignment 3 – CSRS (CSU Student Record System)

Maximum Points = 50

The purpose of this lab is to focus on the study of classes, objects, inheritance and polymorphism.

 

The registrar is designing a new system to manage and process student records. You have been asked to write the program to implement this.

 

BASIC ASSIGNMENT

a)    Design and implement a base class that represents up to 500 university students. A student has a student ID, last name, and first name.  Undergraduate, graduate, and transient students also have major, hours completed, and GPA.

b)    Design and implement classes for undergraduate, graduate, non-degree, and transient students where undergraduates have a class level (freshman, sophomore, junior, senior) and transient students have a current university.

c)    Make sure to include necessary constructors, accessors & mutators (gets/sets), and toString methods for all classes.

d)    Design and implement a main class that

a.    reads the data from a file (students.txt) where the first field identifies the type of student (U – undergraduate, G – graduate, N – non-degree, T - transient ). Each record consists of the data for the student with each field separated by #.

b.    After reading in all of the data, your main class should provide a menu that allows the user to do at least two of the following:

                                          i.    Print a list of all students.

                                        ii.    Print a list of majors.

                                       iii.    Allow the user to add a student to the list of students.

                                       iv.    Search for a student using a student ID entered by the user.

                                        v.    Remove a student from the list selected by student ID.

                                       vi.    Allow the user to compute the average GPA for a specified major.

                                      vii.    Print the list of undergraduates for a specified class level (i.e all freshman).

                                    viii.    Compute and print the total hours for all students with a specified major.

                                       ix.    Print the list of undergraduates separated by class level (CHALLENGING).

                                        x.    Other approved option.
