Programming 3 Week 3 assignments

Week 3 assignments

When creating the program code, you must apply the following basic principles:
• create a separate project for each assignment;
• use name ‘assignment1’, ‘assignment2’, etcetera for the projects;
• create one solution for each week containing the projects for that week;
• make sure the output of your programs are the same as the given screenshots;

Note: for assignment 1 and 2, your output must contain a dot (.) as a decimal separator, and not a comma (,), see
screenshots on the next page. To make sure your program uses a dot, add the following code to your program:

using System;
using System.Globalization;
using System.Threading;

void Start()
{
// set culture of program
CultureInfo ci = new CultureInfo("en-US");
Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = ci;
Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = ci;

// your code here...

Assignment 1 – Bookshop revisited
We will revisit the Bookshop of last week, improving it by using properties (instead of public members).

a) Modify (abstract) class BookStoreItem by converting the public members (title and price) into
properties.

b) Add an extra property ‘Count’ that contains the number of copies of a bookstore item. Also add a
calculated property ‘TotalPrice’, that returns the total sales price of all available copies.

c) Modify the classes Book and Magazine by converting the public members into properties. Property
Author (class Book) must be a read only property, since the author of a book does not change.

d) Modify method ‘PrintCompleteStock’ of class BookStore: instead of using the price of each item, use
the ‘total price’ (of all copies of an item). Furthermore, make sure the list with items is private, we
don’t want the list to be accessible by other classes.

e) In the Start method, create some books and magazines, and add these to the bookstore. You can use
the screenshot below, to check your own program (pay special attention to the total price of the
complete stock).

Assignment 2 - Cinema
In this assignment we will create some classes for a reservation system, for booking cinema tickets. We don’t
implement a complete system, only the classes Customer, Ticket and Reservation.

class Customer
Of each customer, we want to record the name and age. Customers with age 60 or older get a discount.
a) Create a property for name, allowing only valid values (name cannot be an empty string).

b) Since the age of a customer will of course change, we will not store the age itself, but the date of birth.
Create a property DateOfBirth, allowing only valid values (date of birth must be in the past).

c) Add a constructor with 2 parameters: name and date of birth.

d) Create a calculated (int) property Age that uses the date of birth. Use DateTime.Today to get the
current date.

e) Create a calculated (bool) property Discount that returns true if the customer is at least 60 years old.

f) In the Start method, check if all properties work correctly for several customers. Some customers will
have had their birthday already this year, other customer will have it later this year. Also check
incorrect input (like an empty name, or a ‘future’ date of birth).

g) In class Program, create a separate method PrintCustomer (with a Customer parameter) to print a
customer. You can see an example of the output below.

class Ticket
Class Ticket has the following properties: (string) MovieName, (int) CinemaRoom, (DateTime) StartTime,
(decimal) Price, (int) MinimumAge.

a) Create the properties and make sure that the following restrictions are met (test this in the set-part of
each property, throw an exception if an invalid value is used):
- the name of the movie is not empty;
- there are 5 cinema rooms: 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5;
- each movie starts on the hour or on the half hour;
- the minimum age can be one of the following values: 0, 6, 9, 12, 16, where 0 means ‘for all ages’;

b) Add a constructor with 2 parameters: movie name and price.

c) Create a calculated property Discount that indicates if a discount will be given for the ticket. A discount
is given for all movies on a Monday or Tuesday. (use property DayOfWeek of class DateTime)

d) In the Start method, check if all properties work correctly for several tickets. Check the following cases:
an empty movie name, an invalid cinema room, and invalid minimum age and an invalid start time.

class Reservation
Class Reservation is linked to a customer, and can have several tickets.

a) Create property Customer (the customer of the reservation) and a property Tickets (a list containing all
tickets of the reservation); tickets can be added to this list;

b) Add a constructor with 1 parameter: the customer of the reservation.

c) Create a calculated property TotalPrice, that returns the total price of all tickets in the list. This
property checks the minimum age, and uses the discount of the tickets and the discount of the
customer. The discount for a ticket is 5%. The discount for customers (60 years or older) is 10% and is
given on the total price (of all tickets);

d) In the Start method, create some reservations and check if the total price is calculated correctly. An
example of the output is given below.
(the movie ‘Green Book’ is on a Monday: February 15th 2021, so a discount of 5% is applied; Piet
Paulusma is 64 years old, so a discount of 10% is applied for the complete reservation)
