For which position are you applying?Software Engineer




Great. Do you have a university degree?Yes




In which field?Computer Engineering




Do you know how to program in Java?Yes




Do you know how to program in C?No

Sorry Deniz. You should know at least two programming languages for this job.




Submission: You will submit a project report and your code over Moodle.




 
Your program should have at least two static methods in addition to your main method. At least two methods should be returning information back to its caller method.




 
You are not allowed to use statements that we haven’t learned in class as of 7/11/17 (such as arrays).




Project report should consist of five sections. These are:




 
Problem Description: In this section, you should describe the problem in your words.




 
Problem Solution: In this section, you should specify the concepts (methods, for loop, if, etc.) that you use in your program. Explain each one (i.e. why you need it, what you accomplish by using it, so on.). You can give a flow chart here to explain your if statements better.




 
Implementation: This section will include your whole code with comments. You need to pay attention to indentation in order to improve readability.




Do not forget to explain each variable that you use (i.e. int count=0; // count is the number of items).




Before each method, specify what the method does (i.e. /* This method . */)




 
Output of the program: A screen-shot of your program output should be put in this section.




 
Conclusion: You should evaluate your work here. State whether you have solved the problem correctly. If not, state what is missing, what could have been improved, and so on.




Your .java file should be named with your initials and your student number together (e.g., OS2013800027). You will submit these over Moodle as a single zip file where the file name is your student number. Your zip file should consist of your .java file and your report in .doc or .pdf format.




Partial Submission: If you cannot generate the picture above, you should still submit your code as well as your report. Try to generate most of the picture. In your report, explain which parts you can generate and which parts you cannot.




Late Submission: Any submission after the deadline is considered late and will not be ac-cepted.
