Project01 - Introduction project - Array manipulation

Project began on January 21st, deadline set for January 28th.

Objectives

The purpose of this project is to present a menu that produces various options for the user to access. These options produce links to input statements that obtain integers, display them and manipulate them.

Prerequisites

In order to successfully accomplish/perform this project, the listed resources/experiences need to be consulted/achieved:

Background

This programs consists on an array and responds to various loop options.

Array - Holds multiple elements as a list of the same data type.

State the idea or purpose of the project. What are you attempting to pursue?

Upon approval, you'll want to fill this section out with more detailed background information. DO NOT JUST PROVIDE A LINK.

Providing any links to original source material, such as from a project page, is a good idea.

You'll want to give a general overview of what is going to be accomplished (for example, if your project is about installing a web server, do a little write-up on web servers. What is it, why do we need one, how does it work, etc.)

Scope

Give a general overview of your anticipated implementation of the project. Address any areas where you are making upfront assumptions or curtailing potential detail. State the focus you will be taking in implementation.

Attributes

State and justify the attributes you'd like to receive upon successful approval and completion of this project.

Procedure

At first my capabilities were limited when approaching this project. After some time revising multiple books and examining a few online sources i was confident to begin a pseudo code approach.

This program uses multiple loops which meant revision on the, While…Do, If….Else statements was needed.

A problem that i faced forming the loop structure for the program was in relation to the Switch, Case statment. It took some time nesting loops properly without running into multiple syntax errors.

A problem i faced producing the case 3 & case 4 options of the menu was not having the right data for my 2nd nested loop. Example below.

for (c = 19; c >= temp; c– ) This loop would not run and took me along time to figure out the problem { eventually adding a greater then or equal to sorted out my problem i think.

array[c] = array[c - 1]; }

Code

Upon completion of the project, if there is an applicable collection of created code, place a copy of your finished code within <code> </code> blocks here.
