Instructions
Download or clone workshop 6 (WS06) from https://github.com/Seneca-144100/IPC-Workshops
Note: If you use the download option, make sure you EXTRACT the files from the .zip archive file
1. Carefully review the “Part-1 Output Example” (next section) to see how this program is expected to
work
2. Do NOT MODIFY the “main1.c” file.
• This launches some pre-testing routines for two functions you need to develop:
getIntPositive and getDoublePositive (described later)
• Following the pre-testing, it will call a function “start” that is the entry-point to the logic of your
program
3. The code you write will be placed in two additional files: “w6p1.h” (header file) and “w6p1.c”
(source file)
File w6p1.h (header file)
4. This file will contain applicable macro’s (#define), structures, and function prototypes
5. Create a macro that represents the maximum number of products to analyze (used in sizing the
array later-on) – define this to be 3
6. Create a macro that represents the number of grams (64) in a suggested serving
7. Create a structure “CatFoodInfo” with the following related members that can hold:
• a whole number for storing a product sku number (unique identifier)
• a double floating-point number for the product price
• a whole number for storing calories per suggested serving
• a double floating-point number for the product weight in pounds (lbs)
8. You will need to create seven (7) functions. In this file, you need to code the prototypes. Here are
the names (case sensitive) of those functions including a short description to help you create the
necessary return types and parameter information for each:
1. getIntPositive
- Returns an integer number
- Receives an address that points to a whole number data type (provide a meaningful
parameter name)
- Note: This function returns the user-entered positive integer value in two ways:
o Return value
o Via the pointer argument
2. getDoublePositive
- Returns a double floating-point number
- Receives an address that points to a double floating-point data type (provide a meaningful
parameter name)
- Note: This function returns the user-entered positive double floating-point value in two
ways:
o Return value
o Via the pointer argument
3. openingMessage
- Does not return a value
- Receives an argument that is an unmodifiable integer value representing the number of
products the user will need to enter for analyzing (provide a meaningful parameter name)
4. getCatFoodInfo
- Returns a “CatFoodInfo” type
- Receives an unmodifiable integer number representing the sequence number of the
product to be entered by the user (provide a meaningful parameter name)
5. displayCatFoodHeader (this function is provided for you)
- Does not return a value nor receives any arguments
6. displayCatFoodData
- Does not return a value
- Receives multiple unmodifiable arguments representing each member of the “CatFoodInfo”
type (not the structure itself)
- Match the data types according to the member types in the “CatFoodInfo” type
- Note: integer types are passed by value, but double floating-point types are passed by
address
7. start
- Does not return a value nor receive any arguments
- This function acts as the main entry-point to the logic of the application (similar to what you
are used to coding in “main” only this function does not return a value)
File w6p1.c (source file)
9. In this file, you will code the function definitions (the implementation of each function)
10. Include the necessary system and user-defined libraries you need for the application (system
libraries use angle brackets (<>), while user-defined use double quotes ("")
11. Code each function definition implementation based on the prototypes declared in the header file.
Below describes each function in a little more detail:
1. getIntPositive
- This function should accept user input for an integer value
- If the value entered is a negative or zero value, an error message should be displayed (see
example output for the message to display)
- Logic should be designed to continue prompting until a positive value is entered
- This function must return the entered value in two ways:
o One: by assigning the entered value to the pointer argument (only if it is NOT NULL)
o Two: by “return”ing the value.
o This provides flexibility to the “caller” of the function where the value can be
captured in two possible ways (or both). Refer to the main.c file to see how this
function is “pre-tested”
2. getDoublePositive
- This is the same as the above described getIntPositive function, only this is for a double
floating-point type.
3. openingMessage
- See the example output “Cat Food Cost Analysis…”
- Be sure to produce the number values by using the appropriate macro’s defined earlier
4. getCatFoodInfo
- Display a message to indicate the sequence number (use argument variable)
o See the example output “Cat Food Product #...”
- Prompt the user to enter data for each member of a “CatFoodInfo” type
- Call appropriate helper functions to get validated user input whenever possible
o Try calling the helper functions in different ways to get the return value
o Suggestion-1: Try getting the function output value via the argument
o Suggestion-2: Try getting the function output value via the returned value (hint:
send “NULL” as the argument)
- Return the CatFoodInfo value
5. displayCatFoodHeader (this function is provided for you)
- Use the following formatting to display the table header:
printf("SKU $Price Bag-lbs Cal/Serv\n");
printf("------- ---------- ---------- --------\n");
6. displayCatFoodData
- Use the following formatting do display a data row based on the arguments being received:
printf("%07d %10.2lf %10.1lf %8d\n"...
7. start
- This is the entry-point to the logic portion of your application (called from main)
- Create an array variable of type “CatFoodInfo” and size it using the appropriate macro
defined in the header file (be sure to initialize it to a safe empty state)
- You may need to declare other local variables as needed
- Call the necessary function that will display an opening message
- Nested inside an iteration construct that will iterate the necessary number of times, call the
necessary function to get user input for each product and assign the function returned
value to the appropriate element of the “CatFoodInfo” array variable (declared earlier).
Hint: Send as an argument to the function, the iterator variable to represent the sequence
number.
- After obtaining all the product data from the user, call the necessary function that will
display the table header
- Nested inside an iteration construct, iterate the necessary number of times for each
product, call the necessary function that will display each “CatFoodInfo” record (send the
necessary arguments – reminder, some are pass-by-value, and others are pass-by-address).

File w6p2.c (source file)
7. In this file, you will continue to code the function definitions (implementation) for the new
functions prototyped in the header file.
8. Include the necessary system and user-defined libraries you need for the application (system
libraries use angle brackets (<>), while user-defined use double quotes ("")
9. Use the supplied w6p2.c file comments to help you locate where to insert your code logic
Note: Move function #7 (“start”) to the end of the file so it is easy to locate and see how the main
logic is implemented
10. Code each function definition implementation based on the prototypes declared in the header file.
Below describes each function in a little more detail (numbering continues from the function listing
in Part-1 and matches the header file function listing described earlier):
8. convertLbsKg
- This function should convert the received argument representing the pounds value (lbs) to
kilograms (kg) by coding the necessary mathematical statement(s)
- Use the macro previously created to help in the conversion (see previous header file
section)
- This function must return the converted value in two ways:
o One: by assigning the result to the 2
nd pointer argument (only if it is NOT NULL)
o Two: by “return”ing the result
o Refer to the main.c file to see how this function is “pre-tested”
9. convertLbsG
- This function should convert the received argument representing the pounds value (lbs) to
grams (g) by coding the necessary mathematical statement(s)
Hint: There may be a function you already coded to help with this
- This function must return the converted value in two ways:
o One: by assigning the result to the 2
nd pointer argument (only if it is NOT NULL)
o Two: by “return”ing the result
o Refer to the main.c file to see how this function is “pre-tested”
10. convertLbs
- This function should convert the received argument representing the pounds value (lbs) to
both, kilograms (kg), and grams (g)
- Use the previously coded functions to perform these needed conversions
Note: return the converted values by assigning the results to the respective pointer
argument variables
- Refer to the main.c file to see how this function is “pre-tested”
11. calculateServings
- Using the values supplied in the first two received arguments, code the necessary
mathematical statement(s) to derive the total servings
- This function must return the converted value in two ways:
o One: by assigning the result to the 3
rd pointer argument (only if it is NOT NULL)
o Two: by “return”ing the result
12. calculateCostPerServing
- Using the values supplied in the first two received arguments, code the necessary
mathematical statement(s) to derive the cost per serving
- This function must return the converted value in two ways:
o One: by assigning the result to the 3rd pointer argument (only if it is NOT NULL)
o Two: by “return”ing the result
13. calculateCostPerCal
- Using the values supplied in the first two received arguments, code the necessary
mathematical statement(s) to derive the cost per calorie
- This function must return the converted value in two ways:
o One: by assigning the result to the 3rd pointer argument (only if it is NOT NULL)
o Two: by “return”ing the result
14. calculateReportData
- Review the function prototype description in this document to relate the arguments
received by this function
- This function must return a ReportData data type, therefore, you will need to create a local
variable of this type, assign the required values to it, and return the variable accordingly.
- The ReportData variable you create, will contain the required data for a single record in the
analysis report.
- All the data assigned will be derived from the 1st argument received by this function
- The first 4 members of the ReportData variable can be directly assigned using the 1st
parameter received to this function (referencing the appropriate members)
- The remaining members of the ReportData variable are calculated values. You should
apply the appropriate previously created functions to help you accomplish this.
- All the data required for the calculations is at your disposal either via the 1
st argument, or
the values already calculated and stored to the ReportData variable
- The last statement in your function should be the returning of the local variable of type
ReportData
15. displayReportHeader
- This function definition is provided for you – however, you will need to complete one
missing part that substitutes the suggested “serving” size (in grams) as noted in yellow
highlighted “???” below. This value should be supplied using one of the macro’s you
created (see the header file section).
printf("Analysis Report (Note: Serving = %dg\n", ???);
printf("---------------\n");
printf("SKU $Price Bag-lbs Bag-kg Bag-g Cal/Serv Servings $/Serv $/Cal\n");
printf("------- ---------- ---------- ---------- --------- -------- -------- ------- -------\n");
16. displayReportData
- This function will display the values of a ReportData type as a formatted row in the report
- Use the following formatting and fill-in the missing parts as required:
printf("%07d %10.2lf %10.1lf %10.4lf %9d %8d %8.1lf %7.2lf %7.5lf",...
- Note: If the 2nd argument received by this function is a non-zero value, you must append to
the displayed row, a series of three asterisks “***” to indicate that this product has been
identified as the cheapest.
17. displayFinalAnalysis
- This function should display the final analysis recommendation message
- Use the argument received by this function to access the required data details
- Also, include a closing message “Happy shopping!”
7. start
- Upgrade this function to include the data analysis component
- You need to create an array variable of type “ReportData” and size it using the appropriate
macro defined in the header file – this will be the same size as what was used for the array
of “CatFoodInfo” done in Part-1 (be sure to initialize it to a safe empty state)
- You will need to create other local variables to help in the determination of the cheapest
product which is based on cost per serving (a calculated value)
- Locate the logic in this function that processes user input for the product data (this should
be nested inside an iteration construct). Immediately following that line, add a function call
to “calculateReportData” and assign the returned value to the new array you just created
(of type ReportData).
Hints
o Use the same iterator variable for the index as was used in the assignment of the
CatFoodInfo in the previous statement
o Send as the 1st argument to “calculateReportData” the “CatFoodInfo” data just
entered by the user
- You must also at some point determine which CatFoodInfo product is the cheapest based
on the cost per serving.
o This can be coded in a few places within this function, so you can determine the
necessary logic and variables required to accomplish this
o Hint: When you determine which CatFoodInfo product is the cheapest, you will
need to store the array index of this product so you can reference the element
whenever you need to afterwards/later in the function
- After displaying the CatFoodInfo list of products (the formatted table done in Part-1),
display the results of the “ReportData” array in a formatted table. Use the new functions
you developed to accomplish this.
- Finally, end the function with a call to the function that displays the final analysis results
(Hint: this is where the saved index from before comes in )

Reflection (50%)
Instructions
• Create a text file named “reflect.txt”
• Record your answer in the reflect.txt file for each of the following:
1. Structures data types can demand a lot of memory (for example the "ReportData" structure).
Without digging into advanced memory management (for example padding), how many bytes
of memory would the "ReportData" structure require? How could we improve the passing of
this information to functions? Use the function "displayReportData" from this workshop in
your explanation.
2. The CatFoodInfo structure and the ReportData structure contain common members. How
could the "ReportData" structure be improved? Show the new and improved "ReportData"
structure with your changes, then show how you would modify your code in the function
"displayReportData". Specifically, show how you would need to modify the printf statement
that displays the data.

Instructions
Download or clone workshop 6 (WS06) from https://github.com/Seneca-144100/IPC-Workshops
Note: If you use the download option, make sure you EXTRACT the files from the .zip archive file
1. Carefully review the “Part-1 Output Example” (next section) to see how this program is expected to
work
2. Do NOT MODIFY the “main1.c” file.
• This launches some pre-testing routines for two functions you need to develop:
getIntPositive and getDoublePositive (described later)
• Following the pre-testing, it will call a function “start” that is the entry-point to the logic of your
program
3. The code you write will be placed in two additional files: “w6p1.h” (header file) and “w6p1.c”
(source file)
File w6p1.h (header file)
4. This file will contain applicable macro’s (#define), structures, and function prototypes
5. Create a macro that represents the maximum number of products to analyze (used in sizing the
array later-on) – define this to be 3
6. Create a macro that represents the number of grams (64) in a suggested serving
7. Create a structure “CatFoodInfo” with the following related members that can hold:
• a whole number for storing a product sku number (unique identifier)
• a double floating-point number for the product price
• a whole number for storing calories per suggested serving
• a double floating-point number for the product weight in pounds (lbs)
8. You will need to create seven (7) functions. In this file, you need to code the prototypes. Here are
the names (case sensitive) of those functions including a short description to help you create the
necessary return types and parameter information for each:
1. getIntPositive
- Returns an integer number
- Receives an address that points to a whole number data type (provide a meaningful
parameter name)
- Note: This function returns the user-entered positive integer value in two ways:
o Return value
o Via the pointer argument
2. getDoublePositive
- Returns a double floating-point number
- Receives an address that points to a double floating-point data type (provide a meaningful
parameter name)
- Note: This function returns the user-entered positive double floating-point value in two
ways:
o Return value
o Via the pointer argument
3. openingMessage
- Does not return a value
- Receives an argument that is an unmodifiable integer value representing the number of
products the user will need to enter for analyzing (provide a meaningful parameter name)
4. getCatFoodInfo
- Returns a “CatFoodInfo” type
- Receives an unmodifiable integer number representing the sequence number of the
product to be entered by the user (provide a meaningful parameter name)
5. displayCatFoodHeader (this function is provided for you)
- Does not return a value nor receives any arguments
6. displayCatFoodData
- Does not return a value
- Receives multiple unmodifiable arguments representing each member of the “CatFoodInfo”
type (not the structure itself)
- Match the data types according to the member types in the “CatFoodInfo” type
- Note: integer types are passed by value, but double floating-point types are passed by
address
7. start
- Does not return a value nor receive any arguments
- This function acts as the main entry-point to the logic of the application (similar to what you
are used to coding in “main” only this function does not return a value)
File w6p1.c (source file)
9. In this file, you will code the function definitions (the implementation of each function)
10. Include the necessary system and user-defined libraries you need for the application (system
libraries use angle brackets (<>), while user-defined use double quotes ("")
11. Code each function definition implementation based on the prototypes declared in the header file.
Below describes each function in a little more detail:
1. getIntPositive
- This function should accept user input for an integer value
- If the value entered is a negative or zero value, an error message should be displayed (see
example output for the message to display)
- Logic should be designed to continue prompting until a positive value is entered
- This function must return the entered value in two ways:
o One: by assigning the entered value to the pointer argument (only if it is NOT NULL)
o Two: by “return”ing the value.
o This provides flexibility to the “caller” of the function where the value can be
captured in two possible ways (or both). Refer to the main.c file to see how this
function is “pre-tested”
2. getDoublePositive
- This is the same as the above described getIntPositive function, only this is for a double
floating-point type.
3. openingMessage
- See the example output “Cat Food Cost Analysis…”
- Be sure to produce the number values by using the appropriate macro’s defined earlier
4. getCatFoodInfo
- Display a message to indicate the sequence number (use argument variable)
o See the example output “Cat Food Product #...”
- Prompt the user to enter data for each member of a “CatFoodInfo” type
- Call appropriate helper functions to get validated user input whenever possible
o Try calling the helper functions in different ways to get the return value
o Suggestion-1: Try getting the function output value via the argument
o Suggestion-2: Try getting the function output value via the returned value (hint:
send “NULL” as the argument)
- Return the CatFoodInfo value
5. displayCatFoodHeader (this function is provided for you)
- Use the following formatting to display the table header:
printf("SKU $Price Bag-lbs Cal/Serv\n");
printf("------- ---------- ---------- --------\n");
6. displayCatFoodData
- Use the following formatting do display a data row based on the arguments being received:
printf("%07d %10.2lf %10.1lf %8d\n"...
7. start
- This is the entry-point to the logic portion of your application (called from main)
- Create an array variable of type “CatFoodInfo” and size it using the appropriate macro
defined in the header file (be sure to initialize it to a safe empty state)
- You may need to declare other local variables as needed
- Call the necessary function that will display an opening message
- Nested inside an iteration construct that will iterate the necessary number of times, call the
necessary function to get user input for each product and assign the function returned
value to the appropriate element of the “CatFoodInfo” array variable (declared earlier).
Hint: Send as an argument to the function, the iterator variable to represent the sequence
number.
- After obtaining all the product data from the user, call the necessary function that will
display the table header
- Nested inside an iteration construct, iterate the necessary number of times for each
product, call the necessary function that will display each “CatFoodInfo” record (send the
necessary arguments – reminder, some are pass-by-value, and others are pass-by-address).

File w6p2.c (source file)
7. In this file, you will continue to code the function definitions (implementation) for the new
functions prototyped in the header file.
8. Include the necessary system and user-defined libraries you need for the application (system
libraries use angle brackets (<>), while user-defined use double quotes ("")
9. Use the supplied w6p2.c file comments to help you locate where to insert your code logic
Note: Move function #7 (“start”) to the end of the file so it is easy to locate and see how the main
logic is implemented
10. Code each function definition implementation based on the prototypes declared in the header file.
Below describes each function in a little more detail (numbering continues from the function listing
in Part-1 and matches the header file function listing described earlier):
8. convertLbsKg
- This function should convert the received argument representing the pounds value (lbs) to
kilograms (kg) by coding the necessary mathematical statement(s)
- Use the macro previously created to help in the conversion (see previous header file
section)
- This function must return the converted value in two ways:
o One: by assigning the result to the 2
nd pointer argument (only if it is NOT NULL)
o Two: by “return”ing the result
o Refer to the main.c file to see how this function is “pre-tested”
9. convertLbsG
- This function should convert the received argument representing the pounds value (lbs) to
grams (g) by coding the necessary mathematical statement(s)
Hint: There may be a function you already coded to help with this
- This function must return the converted value in two ways:
o One: by assigning the result to the 2
nd pointer argument (only if it is NOT NULL)
o Two: by “return”ing the result
o Refer to the main.c file to see how this function is “pre-tested”
10. convertLbs
- This function should convert the received argument representing the pounds value (lbs) to
both, kilograms (kg), and grams (g)
- Use the previously coded functions to perform these needed conversions
Note: return the converted values by assigning the results to the respective pointer
argument variables
- Refer to the main.c file to see how this function is “pre-tested”
11. calculateServings
- Using the values supplied in the first two received arguments, code the necessary
mathematical statement(s) to derive the total servings
- This function must return the converted value in two ways:
o One: by assigning the result to the 3
rd pointer argument (only if it is NOT NULL)
o Two: by “return”ing the result
12. calculateCostPerServing
- Using the values supplied in the first two received arguments, code the necessary
mathematical statement(s) to derive the cost per serving
- This function must return the converted value in two ways:
o One: by assigning the result to the 3rd pointer argument (only if it is NOT NULL)
o Two: by “return”ing the result
13. calculateCostPerCal
- Using the values supplied in the first two received arguments, code the necessary
mathematical statement(s) to derive the cost per calorie
- This function must return the converted value in two ways:
o One: by assigning the result to the 3rd pointer argument (only if it is NOT NULL)
o Two: by “return”ing the result
14. calculateReportData
- Review the function prototype description in this document to relate the arguments
received by this function
- This function must return a ReportData data type, therefore, you will need to create a local
variable of this type, assign the required values to it, and return the variable accordingly.
- The ReportData variable you create, will contain the required data for a single record in the
analysis report.
- All the data assigned will be derived from the 1st argument received by this function
- The first 4 members of the ReportData variable can be directly assigned using the 1st
parameter received to this function (referencing the appropriate members)
- The remaining members of the ReportData variable are calculated values. You should
apply the appropriate previously created functions to help you accomplish this.
- All the data required for the calculations is at your disposal either via the 1
st argument, or
the values already calculated and stored to the ReportData variable
- The last statement in your function should be the returning of the local variable of type
ReportData
15. displayReportHeader
- This function definition is provided for you – however, you will need to complete one
missing part that substitutes the suggested “serving” size (in grams) as noted in yellow
highlighted “???” below. This value should be supplied using one of the macro’s you
created (see the header file section).
printf("Analysis Report (Note: Serving = %dg\n", ???);
printf("---------------\n");
printf("SKU $Price Bag-lbs Bag-kg Bag-g Cal/Serv Servings $/Serv $/Cal\n");
printf("------- ---------- ---------- ---------- --------- -------- -------- ------- -------\n");
16. displayReportData
- This function will display the values of a ReportData type as a formatted row in the report
- Use the following formatting and fill-in the missing parts as required:
printf("%07d %10.2lf %10.1lf %10.4lf %9d %8d %8.1lf %7.2lf %7.5lf",...
- Note: If the 2nd argument received by this function is a non-zero value, you must append to
the displayed row, a series of three asterisks “***” to indicate that this product has been
identified as the cheapest.
17. displayFinalAnalysis
- This function should display the final analysis recommendation message
- Use the argument received by this function to access the required data details
- Also, include a closing message “Happy shopping!”
7. start
- Upgrade this function to include the data analysis component
- You need to create an array variable of type “ReportData” and size it using the appropriate
macro defined in the header file – this will be the same size as what was used for the array
of “CatFoodInfo” done in Part-1 (be sure to initialize it to a safe empty state)
- You will need to create other local variables to help in the determination of the cheapest
product which is based on cost per serving (a calculated value)
- Locate the logic in this function that processes user input for the product data (this should
be nested inside an iteration construct). Immediately following that line, add a function call
to “calculateReportData” and assign the returned value to the new array you just created
(of type ReportData).
Hints
o Use the same iterator variable for the index as was used in the assignment of the
CatFoodInfo in the previous statement
o Send as the 1st argument to “calculateReportData” the “CatFoodInfo” data just
entered by the user
- You must also at some point determine which CatFoodInfo product is the cheapest based
on the cost per serving.
o This can be coded in a few places within this function, so you can determine the
necessary logic and variables required to accomplish this
o Hint: When you determine which CatFoodInfo product is the cheapest, you will
need to store the array index of this product so you can reference the element
whenever you need to afterwards/later in the function
- After displaying the CatFoodInfo list of products (the formatted table done in Part-1),
display the results of the “ReportData” array in a formatted table. Use the new functions
you developed to accomplish this.
- Finally, end the function with a call to the function that displays the final analysis results
(Hint: this is where the saved index from before comes in )

Reflection (50%)
Instructions
• Create a text file named “reflect.txt”
• Record your answer in the reflect.txt file for each of the following:
1. Structures data types can demand a lot of memory (for example the "ReportData" structure).
Without digging into advanced memory management (for example padding), how many bytes
of memory would the "ReportData" structure require? How could we improve the passing of
this information to functions? Use the function "displayReportData" from this workshop in
your explanation.
2. The CatFoodInfo structure and the ReportData structure contain common members. How
could the "ReportData" structure be improved? Show the new and improved "ReportData"
structure with your changes, then show how you would modify your code in the function
"displayReportData". Specifically, show how you would need to modify the printf statement
that displays the data.
