ECP1016 - Computer and Program Design: Tutorial 3 Control Program (Selection Structure)

This document outlines the topics and assignments for a tutorial on control programs and selection structures in C programming. Section A instructs students to familiarize themselves with if, if-else, and switch statements before the tutorial. Section B provides three programming assignments involving selection structures, including determining multiples of 5, identifying keys pressed, and building a basic calculator. Section C assigns a post-tutorial program to calculate discounted prices based on color codes.

Tutorial 3

Section A: Student Self Learning, reading and Preparation before the tutorial

1. Familiarize with the syntax of the selection structures in C, i.e., the if, if-else and switch
statements.

2. Self-Reading Materials

Section B: Tutorial Questions or Assignments during the lab

1. Design a program that inputs an integer number from the user and determines if the integer is a
multiple of 5.

a) Draw a flowchart of this program
b) Write a complete C program using if-else statement.
c) Replace the if-else statement in part (b) with a switch statement.

2. Write a C program that receives a key-pressed by the user, and determines if the key entered is a
numeric digit, alphabet (uppercase or lowercase) or other character.

3. Write a complete C program to implement the functions of a calculator. The calculator is limited
for some simple arithmetic operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.
Upon receiving two real numbers and a valid arithmetic operator, the calculator displays the result of
the computation. An error message should be printed if an invalid operator has been entered.











Section C: Post Tutorial Questions or Assignments

1. Write a C program (Using nested if-else and switch statements) that computes the new
price of an item. The program should receive a character variable colour and a double
precision floating-point variable price from the user. Discount rate is determined based on
the colour of the discount sticker, as shown in the following table:
[5 marks]




Sl. No Colour Discount rate
1 Red (R or r) 20%
2 Green (G or g) 15%
3 Blue (B or b) 10%
