CS20 BAssignment 2

This document provides instructions for Assignment 2 of CS 20B. Students must design and implement a class to store employee data from a text file, including name, ID number, job information, years of service, education, and calculated gross pay. The class must accommodate an array of up to 30 employees, handling cases where the file is empty, has extra data, or less than 30 records. The program must output employee data in sorted and unsorted formats, and allow searching by ID or name. Proper error handling for invalid data is required.

CS 20B – Assignment 2

Due Dates:
Part1 – Complete design, coding, testing Employee class (due 3/4/2009)
Part2 – Complete design, coding, testing entire project (due 3/11/2009)
Note: Any one not completing and submitting part 1 on time will be
dropped from the class. Read design document 1 given to you on design
of Student class in detail to learn how to design Employee class.

Description
As a paymaster for Badwater Brewery, you are asked to determine the gross pay of
each employee based on the following information.

Table of Base Pay


Employee Description Base Pay in Dollars Employee Code
Factory Worker 800 S
Office Worker 1000 O
Management 1500 M

A percentage is added to the base pay depending upon as to how employee fares in
the following three categories.

Category 1: Job Classification: Use the following table to add to the Base pay.

Job Classification Percentage of base salary to add to


calculate gross pay
1 5%
2 10%
3 20%

Category 2: Years of Service:


For service from 0 to 10 years, add 5% of the base pay. For above 10 years of
service, add 1% for each year above 10 years. Maximum service 50 years.

Category 3: Educational Adjustment: Use the following table to add to the base pay.

Educational Code Level of Education Percentage of base pay to


add to calculate the gross
pay
1 High School 0%
2 Junior College 5%
3 University 12%
4 Graduate School 20%

CS20B – Assignment 2 (See due date on page 1) Page 1 of 4


Use the base pay and salary adjustments dictated in above three categories to
calculate the employee gross pay. The employee data are stored in a ASCII file
which has the structure given on next page.

Name
Jack Smith
M 1234 3 12 4

Years of
Educational
Service
Employee Code
code
Employee Job Classification
ID Number code

Another set of employee data may look like as follows:

Joe Jones
O 1222 2 10 3

The data file may be empty or may have some invalid data. For example, the
number of years of service more than 50 will be invalid data. Or job classification or
Educational code may not be of the value allowed. Wrong Employee code may be
present.

Your task is to design a class to store “necessary” employee raw data and processed
data. Use an array of class to store all employee data in the file. You may design the
program to hold 30 employees (therefore 30 member array of class). The data file
may have more than 30 employee records however. In that case your program must
read only 30 records and give a message that number of records exceeded the
program capacity. If data file is empty, then program must print the message to
inform user that data file is empty. Modularize your program with functions as
much as you can.

Your program output must be of the following format.

Name ID# Job Type Gross Salary check this


Jack Smith 1234 Management $2205.00 number for
……… ……… ……………. ……………. accuracy
For employees, for which the data are bad, the program must print the message to
the affect that Gross Salary could not be calculated due to bad data. The types of
bad data may be:
• Employee code in lower case letter

CS20B – Assignment 2 (See due date on page 1) Page 2 of 4


• Number of years of service exceeding 50 years
• Educational and job classification code not in the correct range.
The output must be printed to a file. The output report file must have processed
data printed in the following order:

1. Unsorted Employee data like the table format above.


2. Sorted Employee data, sorted based on ID#
3. Sorted Employee data, sorted based on Last Name
4. Sorted Employee data, sorted based on Gross Salary
While the program is running, the user must be given a menu of choices to search
the employee array based on Employee ID number (assume unique ID number for
each employee), and based on Last Name. If more than one employee have the same
last names, then program may print, just the first match. User must be able to
search as many times as they wish and exit after the search is over. You can use any
sorting algorithm you prefer. Binary search will be faster, but will require a sorted
array. You may use linear search algorithm as well.

Before you show me your program test, your data thoroughly using an empty file,
file with more than 30 records, and file with less than 30 records. I will provide you
the sample output from one of the data file, and a Xerox copy of the data file
shortly. The data file provided for the program will be namelist.txt.

Required in Program Design:


1. All data members of class(es) used must be declared as private. Since you are
going to sort and/or search based on last name, ID and gross salary – it is
imperative that those must be the class data members. Design other data
members as per robustness of the program.
2. May have default and explicit constructors. Constructor may chain together.
3. You must use two classes. In that case one class would be Employee and other
would contain the array of class Employee and proper operations on it. Choose
array size to be 30. Third class to manage files is optional but not required. I may
actually give you that class. (It will be called IOManagement).
4. Program must run successfully on empty file, file with more than 30
Employees, and less than 30. Keep employee array size to 30. In each case
program must inform user properly. For example if file has data more than
the capacity of the array then user must be informed that file has excess data
and only 30 employees would be processed.

Suggestions for methods design:


1. Provide get and set member functions for necessary private data
members. There is not need to provide mutator for ID for example.
2. Provide member function to calculate gross salary and required error
correction.
3. Provide a class member function that prints the employee data either to a file
or to the standard output. The output is properly formatted. If employee
gross salary was set to zero then function prints relevant message that there

were calculation error due to bad data in the file.
4. Provide methods for sorting and searching based on different criteria.

Data Files are available on acshare and on e-companion.
