Paper-2: Programming in C LaboratoryGeneral guidelines:

1. The student must be made to write the programs at home before they are given time onthe system.

2. Each student must be given a system for his /her exclusive use for the lab duration offour periods .For this laboratory. If any student finds that the time is not sufficient he/shemay be given extra Time during non-working hours of the college.

3. The students must be made to document their programs/functions using extensivecomments. The documentation must contain the name, date etc to show when the finalversion was done. Laboratory teachers must sign with date and this listing along withresults must be maintained in a record. The documentation shall also contain thepurpose, input and output expected from the program. Students should be encouraged totest the programs and explicitly test the domain of the input and output. The record mustcontain some remarks of the student regarding the Complexity of the algorithms used bythe student .All these things will help the student to improve his/her communicationability.

4. Occasionally students must be encouraged to make oral presentation of their programs.

5. The following list of programs /functions should be treated as a minimum requirementand students should be encouraged to spend some extra time in the laboratory bykeeping the lab open for extra time.

Students may be permitted to use either c or c++:1. Programs using all the operators(including bit wise operators)2. Program for searching a number in an array, linear, binary search should be done and

performance Measured and tested against theory.3. Program for summing the elements of an array.4. Program for generating Fibonacci series and also of finding the Nth element of

Fibonacci series5. Program for determining GCD of two integers using recursive and non-excursive

functions6. Program for determining the factorial of a given integer. Also determine the maximum

number for which factorial can be determined for into and float variables.7. Functions for matrix addition, transpose and multiplication and testing them.8. Writing C functions for string manipulation (like reversing, determining if the given

string Is palindrome or not)9. Rewrite functions for exercise 6 using pointers10. Rewrite functions for exercise 7 using pointers11. Printing the bit pattern of floating point number using an union12. Defining a structure like an employee record and then reading and processing the

salaries of a set of employees.13. Exercise in usage of dynamic memory allocation14. Writing a program which imitates DOS copy routine. The program must be capable of

copying text and Binary files.15. Writing a program which copies a text file to another file but in reverse order. Please the

File size could be extremely large and hence cannot be read entirely at a time.Paper-3: Information TechnologyUnit-I: Computer Basics:

Paper-3: MS Office LaboratoryGeneral guidelines:

1. Relevant Components of Microsoft Office should be used for this laboratory.2. Students should be given material like simple text, brochures (containing text in different

styles), a page from mathematics.Book (containing equations), etc for learning WORD properly.

3. The student should be encouraged to understand the spread sheet concept by providinghim with useful have examples students present the data using PowerPoint.

4. The students should be given several small projects with live examples from the collegeand then make the students present the data using power point.
