C Mini Project is a mini application that could be developed using C language that involves
the concepts of arrays, functions, read and write data techniques. Based on your
creativity, you are required to plan, design and develop a mini application for an
organisation.

You may choose to from the list below or propose your own mini application:
1. Customer Billing System
2. Employee Record System
3. Contact Management System
4. Appointment Management System
5. Attendance Record System

Your responsibility is to ensure that this project is delivered on time and within the budget.
Therefore, you need to plan, design and develop it incorporating the following
requirements:
a) Pick an idea and prepare a proposal. [40 marks]
Your proposal should at least contain the following sections and subsections:
1. Introduction/overview of mini application/system
 Includes problem statement, objectives, target users, scope of application
and development methodology.

 Milestones

2. Analysis
 Includes an evaluation of choice of tool and feasibility study.

3. Design
 Explanation on flowchart and development methodology

4. Conclusion and recommendations
 Includes potential contribution of animation, limitations and future
enhancements.

5. References
6. Appendix (if any)
