Assignment Help-Coding
Using a menu-driven interface, write a C# program that uses an array of strings to represent the seats assignments on a airplane.
Assuming for the prototype there are 10 seats (numbered 0-9), use the indices of the array to represent the seat (i.e., array location 0 would be Seat 0, array location 1 would be Seat 1, etc.
To make a seat assignment, find an empty seat in the array (represented with the null string “”) and store the customer’s name in the array location.
Each location in the array should be initialized to “”. The seating array is to be declared in the Main() method which is to use a do-while loop to repeatedly prompt the user to enter a command (char). The possible commands are ‘b’ or ‘B’ for book a seat, ‘c’ or ‘C’ cancel a seat, ‘p’ or ‘P’ for print the seating assignments, and ‘q’ or ‘Q’ for quit.
Using a switch statement in the do-while loop, Main() is to select the appropriate action and call the appropriate user-defined method. The Main() method should continue accepting commands until the user enters a ‘Q’ or ‘q’. The program is to have five user-defined methods: (i) An int method call FindEmptySeat which takes one formal parameter representing the array of strings that stores the seating assignments and returns the array index of the first available seat on the airplane (or -1 if the airplane is full). The first empty seat will be the first array location found that contains the null string “”.
The method header should look like: public static int FindEmptySeat(string [] SeatAssign) (ii) An int method call FindCustomerSeat which takes two formal parameters representing the array of strings that stores the seating assignments and a string for the customer to whom you are looking. This method is to return the array index of where the customer’s name is found in the array (or -1 if the customer does not have a seat). The method header should look like: public static int FindCustomerSeat(string [] SeatAssign, string cName) (iii) A void function called Booking which takes one formal parameter representing the array of strings that stores the seating assignments.
This method should prompt the user for a customer’s name and then use the method FindEmptySeat to find an available seat. If a seat can be found (FindEmptySeat return a number between 0 and 9), the customer’s name is to be stored in the array at the available seat location and a message printed indicating giving the customer’s name and seat location. If a seat cannot be found (FindEmptySeat returns a -1), a message should be printed with the customer’s name and the fact that the plane is full. The method header should look like: public static void Booking(string [] SeatAssign) (iv) A void function called Cancel which takes one formal parameter representing the array of strings that stores the seating assignments. This method should prompt the user for a customer’s name and then use the method FindCustomerSeat to find the seat number for this customer.
If FindCustomerSeat return a valid seat number, simply mark the seat as empty (store the null string) and print a message giving the customer’s name and the fact that the seat has been cancelled. If FindCustomerSeat returns a -1, print a message stating that the customer name does not have seat on this plane. The method header should look like: public static void Cancel(string [] SeatAssign) 1 (v) A void function called PrintSeats which takes one formal parameter representing the array of strings that stores the seating assignments
