IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS:
This is a group assignment. Upon submission of your assignment, you are required to present
your assignment at a date and time specified by your module lecturer.

Each team member is required to contribute towards some features in the system &
documentation, present and explain his or her work accordingly. Each team member should be
able to answer questions during presentation with regards to the overall systems project or
specific question(s) related to the codes used in the development.

2.0 Requirements
i. You are required to carry out research relevant to the existing program similar to your
program going to be developed and document any logical assumptions in terms of
functionalities can be embedded to your program.

ii. Your program should use constants where appropriate. Validations need to be included to
ensure the accuracy of the program. State any assumptions that you make under each
function.

iii. You are required to store all data in text files. There is no limit on the number of text files
that can be used but they should be kept minimum.

iv. You are expected to use list and functions in your program. Your program must embrace
modular programming technique and should be menu driven. Your program also should
provide a termination function.

v. You may include any extra features which you may feel relevant and that add value to the
system.

vi. There should be no need for graphics in your program, as what is being assessed, is your
programming skill not the interface design. The marking scheme for the assignment has
been provided so that you clearly know how the assessment for this assignment would be
done.

vii. You should include the good programming practice such as comments, variable naming
conventions and indentation.

viii. In a situation where a student:

- Failed to attempt the assignment demonstration, overall marks awarded for the
assignment will be adjusted to 50% of the overall existing marks.
- Found to be involved plagiarism, the offence and will be dealt in accordance to APU
regulations on plagiarism.

ix. You are required to use Python programming language to implement the solution. Use of
any other language like C/C++/Java is not allowed.

3.0 Deliverables
You are required to submit a softcopy of:
