Slot13-Programming With Menu

1) The document discusses implementing menus in C programs using switch statements within a do-while loop. Users can select different options that call different functions. 2) It provides an example of a menu with Operations 1 and 2, and an "Others" option to quit. If 1 is selected, the user inputs two integers and the program prints the sum between them. If 2 is selected, the user inputs two characters and the program prints the ASCII values between them. 3) The document also discusses using pointers as function parameters in C to modify argument values, and references as an alternative to pointers for passing arguments in C++.

Programming With Menu


A review for C-Functions
Pointers are parameters of functions
Using some C++ characteristics
Why is Menu?

• Generally, a program performs some


operations and at a time only one task is
carried out. ➔ A menu is usually used.

➔ How are menus implemented in C


program?

Programming with Menus 2


Idea
• Common Algorithm in the entry point:
int userChoice;
do
{ userChoice= getUserChoice();
switch (userChoice)
{ case 1: function1(); break;
case 2: function2(); break;
case 3: function3(); break;
}
}
while (userChoice >0 && userChoice<maxChoice);

Problem
• Write a C program using the following menu:
1- Operation 1
2- Operation 2
Others- Quit
• If user chooses 1, user will input 2 integers, the
program will print out sum of integers between them
including them.
• If user chooses 2, user will input 2 characters, the
program will print out the ASCII table between two
inputted characters in ascending order.
• If user chooses other options, the program will
terminate.

Functions with pointers as parameters

• C uses by-value parameters only → A


function can not modify values of arguments.
• To modify values of arguments, pointers as
parameters of a function are used.

Pointers as parameters: Demo

1000 x=9.08
main
992 y=-12.34

p1: 9.08
p2: -12.34 swapDouble2
t

Pointers as parameters: Demo

992 y=-12.34

p1: 1000

swapDouble(&x, &y);

Introduction to C++
• C++ is an Object-Oriented Language
• It is developed from the C language and the language
C is contained in C++ language
• The programming tool Dev-C++ supports both C and
C++ source codes
• File extension of a C++ source code is .cpp
• We can use some C++ characteristics to develop
programs more easily, such as:
– References in C++ can be used as a replacement of
pointers in function parameters
– The new and delete operators to allocate/de-allocate
dynamic data instead of C functions malloc, calloc, free
– Utilities about variable declarations, comments

Programming with Menus 12


C++: References
• A way to give another name of a datum

// Comment to the line end

Both n1 and n2 are stored in only one memory block


→ n2 is the another name of n1
