Corning Community College ENGR1050 C for Engineers ======PROJECT: Voltage and Circuit Control (VCC1)====== =====OBJECTIVE===== To continue our exploration of interfacing electronics with our pi's, and writing a program that controls it, and collaboratively authoring and documenting the project and its specifications. =====GRABIT===== To assist with consistency across all implementations, data files for use with this project are available on lab46 via the **grabit** tool. Be sure to obtain it and ensure your implementation properly works with the provided data. lab46:~/src/SEMESTER/DESIG$ grabit DESIG PROJECT =====OVERVIEW===== Your task is to expand upon last week's project by scaling it to six independently GPIO-controlled LEDs, optimize the binary counting process with a loop and bitwise logic, and to incorporate a button, which will influence the direction of counting (normal upward flow when not pressed, reverse flow during a button press). Contributing to project documentation is also a core part of this project. If from reading the existing documentation or through your own exploring, you find something lacking, unclear, or outright missing, that is an opportunity to potentially contribute content. You want the project documentation to provide you (as if coming in with no awareness of the project) with sufficient information so as to allow you to proceed. Asking questions on the discord is a great way of getting more information that you can use to add content. =====EDIT===== You will want to go [[/notes/c4eng/fall2022/projects/vcc1|here]] to edit and fill in the various sections of the document: * [[/notes/c4eng/fall2022/projects/vcc1|https://lab46.g7n.org/notes/c4eng/fall2022/projects/vcc1]] {{page>notes:c4eng:fall2022:projects:vcc1&nouser&nodate&nomdate}} ====pseudocode==== SET COUNTER TO ZERO AS LONG AS PROGRAM CONTINUES TO RUN: SET VALUE TO CURRENT NUMBER STORED IN COUNTER LOOKING AT BITS RANGING FROM NUM_LEDS MINUS ONE TO ZERO: SET PLACEVALUE TO TWO RAISED TO THE BIT BEING LOOKED AT SHOULD VALUE ANDED WITH PLACEVALUE BE ONE: ENABLE PLACEVALUE'S LED OTHERWISE: DISABLE PLACEVALUE'S LED NEXT LOOK (UNTIL DONE) SHOULD THE BUTTON BE PRESSED: UPDATE COUNTER TO BE ONE LESS THAN ITS CURRENT STATE SHOULD THE COUNTER GO BELOW ZERO: RESET COUNTER TO TWO RAISED TO NUM_LEDS OTHERWISE: UPDATE COUNTER TO BE ONE GREATER THAN ITS CURRENT STATE SHOULD THE COUNTER EXCEED FIFTEEN: RESET COUNTER TO ZERO KEEP GOING =====SUBMISSION===== To be successful in this project, the following criteria (or their equivalent) must be met: * Project must be submit on time, by the deadline. * Late submissions will lose 33% credit per day, with the submission window closing on the 3rd day following the deadline. * All code must compile cleanly (no warnings or errors) * Compile with the **-Wall** and **--std=gnu18** compiler flags * all requested functionality must conform to stated requirements (either on this document or in a comment banner in source code files themselves). * Executed programs must display in a manner similar to provided output * output formatted, where applicable, must match that of project requirements * Processing must be correct based on input given and output requested * Output, if applicable, must be correct based on values input * Code must be nicely and consistently indented * Code must be consistently written, to strive for readability from having a consistent style throughout * Code must be commented * Any "to be implemented" comments **MUST** be removed * these "to be implemented" comments, if still present at evaluation time, will result in points being deducted. * Sufficient comments explaining the point of provided logic **MUST** be present * No global variables (without instructor approval), no goto statements, no calling of main()! * Track/version the source code in your lab46 semester repository * Submit a copy of your source code to me using the **submit** tool (**make submit** on lab46 will do this) by the deadline. ====Submit Tool Usage==== Let's say you have completed work on the project, and are ready to submit, you would do the following (assuming you have a program called uom0.c): lab46:~/src/SEMESTER/DESIG/PROJECT$ make submit You should get some sort of confirmation indicating successful submission if all went according to plan. If not, check for typos and or locational mismatches. =====RUBRIC===== I'll be evaluating the project based on the following criteria: 65:vcc1:final tally of results (65/65) *:vcc1:used grabit to obtain project by the Sunday prior to duedate [10/10] *:vcc1:picture of unpowered circuit to #desig for approval [10/10] *:vcc1:picture of powered circuit to #desig showing results [10/10] *:vcc1:clean compile, no compiler messages [7/7] *:vcc1:program conforms to project specifications [22/22] *:vcc1:code tracked in lab46 semester repo [6/6] ===Pertaining to the collaborative authoring of project documentation=== * each class member is to participate in the contribution of relevant information and formatting of the documentation * minimal member contributions consist of: * near the class average edits (a value of at least four productive edits) * near the average class content change average (a value of at least 256 bytes (absolute value of data content change)) * near the class content contribution average (a value of at least 1kiB) * no adding in one commit then later removing in its entirety for the sake of satisfying edit requirements * adding and formatting data in an organized fashion, aiming to create an informative and readable document that anyone in the class can reference * content contributions will be factored into a documentation coefficient, a value multiplied against your actual project submission to influence the end result: * no contributions, co-efficient is 0.50 * less than minimum contributions is 0.75 * met minimum contribution threshold is 1.00 ===Additionally=== * Solutions not abiding by spirit of project will be subject to a 50% overall deduction * Solutions not utilizing descriptive why and how comments will be subject to a 25% overall deduction * Solutions not utilizing indentation to promote scope and clarity or otherwise maintaining consistency in code style and presentation will be subject to a 25% overall deduction * Solutions not organized and easy to read (assume a terminal at least 90 characters wide, 40 characters tall) are subject to a 25% overall deduction
