Subject: PRF192 - Programming Fundamental with C

Workshop 3
Objectives:
In this workshop, you will:
- To understand how to manipulate and process arrays in C.
- To practice using functions for modular programming: data input, search, display,
and calculations.
- To implement a search function that allows users to find a specific number within
the array.
- To perform basic calculations on the array such as sum, average, maximum, and
minimum values.
- To display results clearly and efficiently.

Problem Overview:
In this problem, the user is required to manage an array of numbers and perform
various tasks on it. The program should allow the user to:
1. Input Data: The user will input a set of numbers and store them in an array.
2. Display Data: Display the contents of the array.
3. Search Function: Search for a specific number within the array and return the
index where it is located.
4. Calculations:
 Calculate the sum of all elements in the array.
 Calculate the average of the array elements.
 Find the maximum and minimum values in the array.
5. Output: The program should output the results of the display, search, and
calculations.

Situation Description:
This problem can be related to real-world scenarios, such as:
 Sales Data: A store might need to input sales data for different products over the
month, display the data, search for specific sales values, and calculate the total
and average sales.
 Grades Data: A teacher might want to calculate the average score of students in
a class, find the highest and lowest grades, and search for specific student scores.
 Weather Data: A meteorologist could use the program to input temperature
readings for a week, search for specific days, and calculate the average and
extremes.
The ability to manipulate and process arrays effectively is critical in many data-
driven applications.

Syntax Use in the Problem:


1. Array Declaration: Arrays are used to store the list of numbers that the user
inputs.
2. Functions: The program is divided into functions that perform specific tasks,
such as input, display, search, and calculation.
3. Loops:
 for loops will be used to iterate over the array for tasks such as input,
searching, displaying, and calculating.
4. Conditional Statements:
 if and else statements will be used to check whether the search value is
found and for handling conditions like checking if the array is empty.
5. Basic Arithmetic Operations: Simple arithmetic is used to calculate the sum,
average, and extremes of the array values.

Specific Requirements:

1. Input:
 The user must input the number of elements in the array (within the range of 1
to 100).
 The user will then input the actual values of the array elements.
2. Display:
 After the user inputs the data, the program will display all the values in the
array.
3. Search:
 The program will allow the user to input a value to search for in the array.
 The program will display the index of the value if found; if not found, it will
display a message saying the value is not present.
4. Calculations:
 The program should calculate:
 Sum: The sum of all elements.
 Average: The average of the elements.
 Maximum and Minimum: The maximum and minimum values from the
array.
5. Modular Programming:
 Each task (input, display, search, and calculations) will be handled by separate
functions, making the program clear, maintainable, and reusable.
6. Edge Case Handling:
 The program should handle an empty array or an array with only one element.
 It should also validate the input for correct number of elements.

Hint: Code Design


Output Sample:
1. Input Data
2. Display array

3. Search for a number

4. Calculate statistis (Sum, Average, Max, Min) and Exit Program
