PROBLEM ANALYSIS

The Online banking system is designed to address a myriad of challenges inherent


to traditional banking systems, including but not limited to:

• Authentication: Ensuring the secure verification of user identities during


login procedures.
• Transaction Management: Facilitating seamless deposit and
withdrawaltransactions while maintaining accurate and up-to-date account
balances.
• Data Storage and Retrieval: Safeguarding customer data and enabling
efficient retrieval and manipulation of account information.

RELATED THEORY
• LOOP:
In programming, a loop is a control structure that repeats a block of
code multiple times. It allows you to execute the same piece of code
repeatedly until a certain condition is met.

There are generally three types of loops:


1. For Loop: This loop is used when you know the number of times you
want to execute the block of code. It typically consists of an
initialization, a condition, and an iteration statement.
[Link] Loop: This loop repeats a block of code as long as a specified
condition is true.
Unlike the for loop, it does not have a predetermined number of
iterations.
[Link]-While Loop: Similar to the while loop, but the condition is
evaluated after executing the block of code, ensuring that the block is
executed at least once.
Loops are fundamental for automating repetitive tasks in programming
and are a crucial concept for any programmer.
• If Else Statement:
The if-else statement is a fundamental control structure in programming
used for decision-making. It allows you to execute different blocks of
code based on whether a specified condition is true or false.
Here is how it works:
[Link] statement: It begins with the keyword if followed by a condition
enclosed in parentheses. If the condition evaluates to true, the block of
code associated with the if statement is executed.
[Link] statement: Optionally, you can include an else block immediately
after the if. The else block is executed if the condition of the if
statement evaluates to false. It provides an alternative set of
instructions to be executed when the condition is not met. The if-else
statement allows programs to make decisions dynamically, enabling
different actions based on different conditions, which is essential for
creating flexible and intelligent code.

• Break Statement:
The break statement is used in programming to exit or terminate a loop
prematurely. It is typically associated with loops such as for loops, while
loops, and do-while loops. When a break statement is encountered
within a loop, the loop immediately terminates, and the program
control resumes at the next statement following the loop. Break
statements are useful when you need to exit a loop based on a certain
condition without completing all iterations. They provide flexibility and
control flow in programming.
• STRUCTURE:
In C programming, a structure is a user-defined data type that allows
you to group together different types of variables under a single name.
It provides a way to represent complex data structures more efficiently
and logically. Structures consist of members, which can be of different
data types, such as integers, floats, characters, or even other structures.
These members can be accessed using the dot operator (.) or the arrow
operator (->) if the structure is used through a pointer. Structures are
widely used in C programming for organizing and managing data in a
structured manner, making code more modular, readable, and
maintainable. They are particularly useful for representing real-world
entities, such as students, employees, or complex data records, by
encapsulating related data elements into a cohesive unit.

• Functions:
In C programming, a function is a self-contained block of code that
performs a specific task. A function in C is defined by specifying the
return type, function name, optional parameters (arguments), and the
function body enclosed within curly braces {}. Functions in C may return
a value of a specific data type using the return statement.

If a function doesn’t return any value, its return type is specified as void.
Functions can take zero or more parameters, which are values passed to
the function when it is called.

Parameters are specified within parentheses after the function name,


with each parameter consisting of a data type and a name. To use a
function, you simply write its name followed by parentheses containing
any required arguments. If a function returns a value, you can assign it
to a variable or use it directly.
• HEADER FILES
1. stdlib.h: It is a standard header file in C programming language. It
stands for standard library and provides various functions for
general-purpose programming tasks such as memory allocation,
random number generation, string manipulation, and conversion
functions.
Some commonly used functions provided by <stdlib.h> are:
➢ rand(): Generate a pseudo-random integer.
➢ srand(): Seed the random number generator.
➢ system(): Execute a shell command.
➢ malloc(), calloc(), realloc()

2. stdio.h: It is a standard header file in C programming language that


stands for standard input/output. It provides functions and macros
for performing input and output operations, such as reading from
and writing to files, standard input/output streams, and formatting
output.

Some commonly used functions provided by <stdio.h> are:


➢ printf(): Prints formatted output to the standard output
stream.
➢ scanf(): Reads formatted input from the standard input
stream.
➢ getchar(), getch(), getche(),putchar(), puts()fscanf(), fprintf()

3. string.h is a header file in the C standard library that provides functions for
manipulating strings. Here's a brief overview of some commonly used
functions in string.h:

➢ strcpy(): Copies the string pointed to by the source to the


destination.
➢ strncpy(): Copies a certain number of characters from the source
to the destination.
➢ strcat(): Concatenates (appends) the source string to the
destination string.
➢ strncat(): Concatenates a certain number of characters from the
source to the destination.
➢ strlen(): Computes the length of a string.
➢ strcmp(): Compares two strings and returns an integer indicating
their relative ordering.
➢ strncmp(): Compares a certain number of characters of two
strings.
➢ strchr(): Finds the first occurrence of a character in a string.
➢ strrchr(): Finds the last occurrence of a character in a string.
➢ strstr(): Finds the first occurrence of a substring in a string.
➢ strtok(): Splits a string into tokens based on a delimiter.

• C File operators :C file operations refer to the different possible


operations that we can perform on a file in C such as:
1. Creating a new file – fopen() with attributes as “a” or “a+” or “w” or “w+”
2. Opening an existing file – fopen()
3. Reading from file – fscanf() or fgets()
4. Writing to a file – fprintf() or fputs()
5. Moving to a specific location in a file – fseek(), rewind()
6. Closing a file – fclose()

• C File
In C programming, a file is a named collection of data stored on a storage device,
such as a hard drive or solid-state drive. Files serve as a means of storing and
retrieving data persistently, allowing programs to interact with data beyond the
scope of their execution. In C, files are manipulated using pointers to file
objects, which provide functions for opening, reading, writing, and closing files.
Files can be categorized as text files or binary files, depending on the type of
data they store. Text files contain human-readable characters, while binary files
contain machine-readable data in a format specific to the application. Files are
essential for tasks such as data storage, retrieval, inter-process communication,
sharing, transfer, backup, recovery, and logging. They enable C programs to
handle large volumes of data efficiently and interact with external data sources
seamlessly.
