Project 5 Design

Due Date

11:59pm, Sunday, Sunday May 1st
No late designs accepted

Objective

The objective of this assignment is to make sure that you begin thinking about your project in a serious way early. This will not only give you experience doing design work, but will help you anticipate the number of hours that you'll need to set aside to be able to complete the project.

The Assignment

In this assignment you will provide the design of the rental system class template and your exception class(es).

A template for your design document, p5design.txt, is provided in Ms. Wortman's public directory. Copy that file

/afs/umbc.edu/users/d/a/dana3/pub/CMSC202/p5/p5design.txt to your local directory and fill in the necessary information. Submit your modified p5design.txt file to complete this assignment.

Grading

You p5design.txt file will count as 10% of your project 5 grade (part of the Correctness). If this file is not submitted by its due date, or if you submit a new version after its due date, you will lose all 10 points.

Your p5design.txt file will be compared to the header file or files that you submit when project 5 is due. Minor changes to the design are allowed. A minor change might be the addition of another function or two or changing the way in which one or two parameters are passed.

If there are major changes between the design document and the header files that are part of the final project, you will lose 5 points. This would indicate that you didn't give sufficient thought to your design before beginning the implementation.
