Features

The program allows an admin to manage a table of student data, with a maximum of 20 students that can be stored. The following functions are available for the admin to manage the student records:

1. Build(): This function helps in initializing student details, where the admin is first asked for the number of students to enter, and then the admin can enter the data of each student respectively.
2. Insert(): This function helps in inserting a new student detail into the current table.
3. DeleteRecord(): This works with the help of another function, which is DeleteIndex(). First, DeleteRecord() takes the input of the student ID from the admin and searches for the student in the record. If the student is found, then it passes the index of the student to DeleteIndex() function for deleting the student record.
4. SearchRecord(): This function searches for the details of a student in the record using the student ID taken as an input from the admin. If the student is found, then it displays the record of the student on the screen.
5. DisplayRecord(): This function helps in displaying the details of all students in the record.
6. UpdateRecord(): This function searches for a student in the record using the student ID taken as an input from the admin. If the student is found, then it updates the new details of the student that are input by the admin.
7. ShowMenu(): It displays all available options of the project for the admin. From here, the admin can navigate to all functions. This is one of the main functions of the project. When the user selects an option from the menu, the program calls a function that performs the selected operation. Each function performs the required operation on the array of structures.

Installation

Prerequisites

• Install a C++ compiler such as GCC, Clang, or Microsoft Visual C++ on your computer.
• A text editor or an IDE such as Visual Studio Code, or Sublime.

Setup

1. Fork and clone the repository to the local computer.
2. Open the project directory in a text editor or an IDE.
3. To run the program:
   • Navigate to the project directory in the terminal or command prompt.
   • Run the command g++ StudentManagement.cpp.
4. To run the program in an IDE, open project in IDE and run the StudentManagement.cpp file.

Features to be added

You need to add the following features in the program:

1. DisplayRecord() function should dispaly all the names sorted according to the student ID, i.e the student with smaller student ID should be shown first.

2. Add a menu option named "Save records" which saves the current data in a text file called "Save.txt", if there is no data currently then it should print so.

Task

The task is to add all the features within the student management system, and to create a pull request (PR) with the proposed fixes.
