 Problem Statement

Develop a C programming project or problem solution system as a beginner to gain more

C programming skills using the following open-ended features:

Open-ended features:
1. You should use at least two user-defined functions with “call by value” and “call by
reference”.
2. You should use at least one array and one string in the whole project.
3. The project should have at least one if-else statement and one loop statement.
4. You should use ‘FILE’ to save and update data.
5. You also may choose any data types, operators, and expressions.

Result analysis:
1. Analyze the time required to complete the whole project.
2. Did you observe any invalid input or any error during run-time?

1. Introduction
A medicine store management system for Admin and User panel.Admin can add or delete any
product,view all the products and read customer feedbacks.User can search from the
inventory,place order,give feedback and get recommendations or exit the program.

1.1. Motivation and Background

The main motivation of the project is to manage any medical store or pharmacy in a more
organized way.So both end can either offer or enjoy the service hasslefree.

1.2. Objectives
1.To provide user the ability to register and login and search for the desired medicine.
2.To give the admin panel secured login and handle the inventory and check feedbacks.
3.To manage inventory.Keeping track of medicine inventory including name,price and
quantity.

2. Current works
The console prompts the role.The admin can securely login.Add or Delete products,check
feedback and see the entire inventory.Whereas the user can login by registering first.Then he
has options to look for recommendations,search from the inventory,place order or give
feedback.

3. Methodology
At the beginning user gets asked his role.Here I have used switch for further steps according to
role.Clicking 1 as admin he is asked to put the password.Only Entering the right password will
let him go for further steps.After login successfully a congratulating text is shown and many
options are given.The options are given using switch.After selecting any of those options,some
more tasks will be happening.These are mostly done using user defined funtions.If user chooses
wrong option it goes to default and shows Invalid Choice.
If the role is of an user.User also gets many options available he can choose from.
The switch is in a do while loop.So if admin or user once choose any option.It will again start
ask the role.
Most of the options are more defined using user defined functions,string library functions,if-
else statement.In the user defined function,both call by value and call by reference was used.
In the main function a lot of the thing is declared as array and strings.

4
Again at the beginning the informations about the medicine,login information is stored in a
structure.
Typedef is used to declare recommendations.And an array is used to define those
recommendations.
3.1 Flow chart

3.2 Hardware and Software Requirements
Operating system: Windows 10
RAM:A minimal amount of RAM should be sufficient.
Storage:Any system with a reasonable amount of free storage is suitable.

4. Implementation and Testing

There will be a welcome message at first.The console will then ask for the role.Admin or
User.If the role is selected admin,he will securely login and manage inventory.If he can’t give
correct password,a message will be shown and he will have to choose his role again.
The user won’t be able to login without registering.But if once registered then he can login by
using the UserID and password.And there he will have his options to explore,view,place
order,get recommendations or exit.

5. Conclusion
This project demonstrates a simple Medical Store Management System from both user and
Admin panel.There is a simple recommendation block to recommend medicine for the user
according to problem.Also to search product and place order.Also for the user to give
feedback.And the admin can manage the inventory.

5.1 Future work

As I have done this project in a very short time,I couldn’t organize it in a way better
manner.More options can also be added in the future.Deleting items in account of their expiry
date.User’s order history and many more.
