DEVELOPMENT METHOD

(a) Requirement Specification

● Describe problem requirements.

● In addition, as stated in the question, this exercise

needs to be solved using modular programming
technique.
√ X
(b) Analyse

● Provide data requirements, relevant formula(s) and

constraints for your proposed solution.

(c) Algorithm

● Provide an algorithm for your proposed solution.

You are required to provide a detailed algorithm in
flowchart or pseudocode.

(ii) IMPLEMENTATION and

PROGRAM DOCUMENTATION

● You are required to develop your program using C++

programming language only. Other than C++ language
in the source code will not be evaluated and zero
marks will be given.

● Develop your C++ program based on the algorithm in

ITEM(i)(c). Otherwise, a penalty of 6 marks will be
applied.

● Provide group’s information such as member’s name, √ √

ID, registered section, and date created in the program
description. Otherwise, your group will receive penalty
of 0 marks.

● Include program description and appropriate

comments in the program.

● The program must be developed using modular

programming approach. The goto statement is not
advisable to be used. The implementation using a go-to
statement or/and non-modular programming approach
will receive 8 marks of deduction.

(iii) TESTING √ √

● Conduct suitable testing and record the results.

(iv) VERIFICATION

● Show relevant activities to verify the result of the

program. √ √

Note: Take one of the results in testing as an example to

perform verification.

Note:
√ indicates YES
X indicates NO

APPENDIX B
PROBLEM STATEMENT

As we have to face the new normal of the endemic phase of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-
19), swab tests become a more common thing for people all over the world. We can take better
precautions with a deeper understanding of swab test results and cycle threshold (CT) values.
The CT value in the Reverse Transcription Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR) test refers to
the number of cycles needed for the PCR machine to determine a positive result. The CT
value helps in determining the user's viral load, where the value is reflected as the presence
of coronavirus. The viral load decreases as the number of cycles increases, and vice versa, as
shown in Table 1.

Table 1
CT value Condition
< 30 Infected and high risk of transmitting the virus to other people
30 - 40 Infected and lower risk of transmitting the virus to other people
> 40 Not infected, no risk of transmitting the virus to others

Now, your team is required to design and develop a modular program using the C++ language
to help users display their conditions, based on the CT value reading. Your program should at
least be capable to perform the following tasks:
1. Welcoming note,
2. Ask the user to key in the name,
3. Ask the user to key in his/her CT value reading,
4. Display the CT value,
5. Display the condition of the user (refer to Table 1)
Your program should display the condition for five (5) users.
