Purpose:

The purpose of this assignment is to practice using methods as well as other previous concepts and basic features of Java in order to solve a real-world problem.

Course Learning Outcomes: 

HVCLO#2-SO(c): Write a programing code that implements algorithms for solving simple problems.

CLO#5-SO(a): Write programs that use primitive data types and standard library functions/methods.

CLO#6-SO(a): Apply appropriate conditional and iteration constructs for a given programming task.

CLO#7-SO(a): Write and/or modify short programs that use standard conditional structures.

HVCLO#8-SO(a): Write programs that use standard iterative control structure. HVCLO#9-SO(c): Write programs that use functions/methods.

Program-04 Description:

Jeddah National Hospital provides a wide range of health services. Some of these services include: Intensive Care Unit (ICU), Radiology, Surgery and Dentistry. Table 1 shows the information related to these services. In order to enhance the hospital’s ability to deliver effective and quality health care, Jeddah National Hospital needs clinical management system, that allows patients to carry out the following actions:

• Book an appointment at any of the four existing clinics.
• Add detailed information about the patients. •   Exit the program.

Program Details:

You need to display the main menu in a loop. After completing the task of booking an appointment or adding information about the patient, the main menu should be displayed again. The user can then choose whether to perform another task or exit the program. This process continues until the user enters exit.

The first appointment for every clinic starts at the opening time, and the next appointment will be after one hour and so on till the closing time. If some patient does not confirm his appointment, then that time of appointment will be assigned to the next patient. For example, the clinic ICU, the first appointment will be at 8:00am and next appointment will be at 9:00am and so on. So, if the first patient confirmed his appointment then his appointment will be at 8:00am. The second patient appoint will be at 9:00am, and the 3^rd patient appointment will be at 10:00am. But if the 2^nd patient does not confirm his appointment, then his appointment time will be assigned to the 3^rd patient and now the 3^rd patient appointment will be at 9:00am. Same process is followed for all four clinics.

Clinic Details:

You will need the following information for your program. 

Table 1: Infrormation of Available Clinics 

Required Methods:

Finally, the purpose of this program is to practice methods. Below is a Table 3 of the methods you are required to create along with the description of each method.

Table 2: Required Methods to be Implemented

Additional Methods (*not* required):

You are allowed to create and use other methods of your own choice. Of course, this is not a requirement. The only required methods are the five methods shown above. However, as you have already studied, the methods are very helpful for code re -use. In fact, additional methods will make your program easier for you!
