C Programming for MSc
This component (Code and Report) contributes 100% of the assessment for this module.
Clearly indicate your Examination Number on every separate piece of work submitted.
Unless the assessment specifies a group submission, you should assume all submissions are
individual and therefore should be your own work.
Submission is via the VLE and is due by 12 noon on Wednesday 23 January 2019 (Spring
Week 3). Please try and submit early as any late submissions will be penalised.
Please remember that if this is your first year of study, you need to complete the mandatory
Academic Integrity Tutorial http://www.york.ac.uk/integrity/

C Programming for MSc
(ELE00107M)
Assignment
Introduction
It is important for engineers to follow a structured process when developing software. A structured approach
to software engineering helps to ensure that the software produced is of high quality. An
important part of this approach is the careful documentation of each stage of the process in the form of
a report. This assignment gives you practice in software development and report writing for software
engineering. Treat the task you have been given as a set of requirements; you could imagine that they
have been given to you by a client. If you feel that the requirements are unclear, you may make
realistic assumptions as necessary, however, you must make sure that you document these
assumptions carefully.
You are required to complete the task using the C Programming Language preferably for a PC
running the Microsoft Windows operating system (i.e. the language and type of computer that you
have been using in the laboratories).
If you choose to develop your code in another operating system (i.e. MacOS or Linux) it is
entirely your responsibility to create an assignment project that works in Windows.
Assignment Structure
IMPORTANT: We have a policy of marking anonymously. Do not identify yourself in your
report or your programs. Use only your student Examination number (begins with Y).
Make sure that you examination number is printed on your report (first page).
Your report should document the development process that you have been through, leading up to the creation
of a piece of software. This should correspond to the development model that you have covered in
the lectures and is detailed in the labscripts (lab 9). Your report should consist of no more than 12 pages
(minimum font size 10 point), including diagrams and figures.
? University of York Revision 6.1
Your submission should contain:
1. The Requirements that were given to you;
2. Your Analysis of the problem, and any assumptions you feel you will have to make;
3. A Specification for your software that you have derived from your analysis of the
requirements;
4. Documentation of the Design process you have used.
5. Documentation covering how your program is structured into source files and any changes
you made from the design as originally stated in your specification. You should justify any
changes to your design that you made during the implementation. This should take the form
of an Implementation Report.
6. Documentation of the Testing and Verification process that your went through to ensure
that your program executes as you required;
7. A simple User Manual.
8. Source programs.
Submitting your work
You are expected to submit your work electronically using the web links provided on the course
web page. You must use the assignment project available from the course web page (see the
section SUBMITTING YOUR ASSIGNMENT).
You will be expected to link your source code files (files ending in .c and .h) with the assignment
project. An explanation of how to do this is given on the course web page under the heading
BLANK ASSIGNMENT PROJECT. It is your responsibility to ensure that you have submitted all
the files your program needs to be successfully compiled into an executable program. If your
program cannot be compiled you may receive no marks for program execution.
Your assignment project MUST work in Windows.
Your assignment report must be a .pdf file. Please place this in the folder containing your
assignment project (i.e. it should be located in the same directory as the file assignment.cbp).
Once you have tested your program and have finished your report make sure everything is in your
assignment folder. Please zip up the folder containing your project and report. Your zipped file
should be called assignment.zip.
Please submit your work in good time before the deadline to ensure that it is uploaded before the
deadline (note the server might be busy very close to the deadline).
If you submit multiple versions of the assignment project, the markers will only take the last
submitted version. If this version is submitted after the deadline then marks will be deducted for
lateness.
University of York Revision 6.1
For your guidance, marks will be awarded as follows:
Requirements, Analysis and Specification — 15%;
Design — 20%;
Implementation of Program — 25%;
Testing and Verification and User Manual — 12%;
Maturity, consistency, presentation and innovation — 13%;
Execution of program — 15%.
(Total 100%)
The assignment contributes 100% of the marks for the C Programming for MSc module.
Important
You should be aware of the University regulations on academic misconduct before completing this assignment
— any failure to correctly acknowledge work of others will be regarded as academic misconduct. This
(includes) the use of solutions provided by module/lab leaders. Thus, if you use these, you must make clear
which parts of your programs were copied or adapted from other sources and where these sources can be
found (i.e. the web address). Comments should be made in your C code about this.
It is mandatory that all students complete the Academic Integrity Tutorial
available at http://www.york.ac.uk/integrity/
Please note that marks will be deducted for programs that are too similar to solutions to lab
exercises made available on the course web site.

Introduction
The laboratory graphics option introduced you to some simple graphical output based on basic
physics. In this assignment you will take the principles you have met in the labs and develop them
to create a playable computer game.
The Task
You are required to design and implement a computer game which is based on the game of golf.
As the player, you control the force with which the golf ball is projected across a graphical golf
course, aiming for the hole, avoiding obstacles such as trees, bunkers and water, and accounting
for the effects of wind. The game must take into account the following:
the flight of the ball must take gravity into account;
the number of strokes required to hit the ball into the hole is used to calculate a score,
taking into account the difficulty of the course;
if the ball hits an obstacle, the player is penalized with extra strokes;
if the ball leaves the screen (golf course) it can be considered to be out of play, and
restarts at the edge of the screen with a penalty added;
the game should keep a score of play over 9 holes of the course;
incorporating sound into the game;
making use of the mouse to control the game.
The game must be enjoyable and playable for someone who is not experienced with computers.
The game experience should be rewarding and challenging.
You might like to think about:
adding levels of difBculty, such as adding more obstacles, to make the game increasingly
challenging;
ensuring that the game is not too frustrating to play — for example, give the player
unlimited swings of the ball and make the holes easy in the early stages of the game.
Think about how to incorporate sound into your game. To achieve this, you can use the
functionality provided by the amio lib. In particular, you could use a call back design to supply
real-time audio to your application (e.g. sound of the ball being hit, cheers of the crowd). Some
good examples on how to achieve something like this can be found in the audio example Bles
(audio01.c and other examples).
