Summary
In this assignment, you are required to model the dotnet Hospital Management System by developing a
console application using C#.
The application should have appropriate data structures to distinguish between a Doctor, Administrator and
Patient as well as store the necessary links between them (such as an appointment, between a Doctor and
a Patient). You are given complete control in how you create these data structures, but guidance has been
given overpage.
Objects should be stored in the system and also written to .txt files such that the system can read them in
and regenerate existing objects on load. This is mandatory.
Students will need to submit the complete project folder in zip format, which will have the complete C#
code, solution file, data file, etc. required to run/test the program. Any special instructions required to run
the code has to be provided in a text file. Submitting a lone “.exe” is not acceptable.
Assignment Objectives:
The purpose of this assignment is to demonstrate competence in the following skills:
• Ensure firm understanding of the .NET framework, C# basics and C# syntax
• Understand how the .NET framework implements OO concepts and the implications this has for
new language design
• Array and string manipulation
• Creating custom classes and methods in C#
• File reading, writing and manipulation in C#
• Creating interactive console applications
• Creating good OO design.
Program and data structures:
• How you structure the classes in your program is your choice. One thing you are not allowed to do
is make your program fully contained inside Program.cs, or any single class.
• In the dotnet Hospital Management System, a user can log in as either a Patient, a Doctor, or an
administrator. These are different roles, which would store different information, and would have a
different menu. Your code structure should reflect this. Assignment -1 Spring 2024 2
• Additionally, your code will need to generate Appointments. An appointment would need a reference
to a single Doctor and a single Patient; your code structure should reflect this. You do not need to
manage Dates/times for appointments (or anywhere, for that matter) in your code. This may result in
appointments being difficult to distinguish and sort; you will not be marked down for this.
• Every patient, doctor and admin, has a unique ID. This ID should be an integer of reasonable length
(5-8 digits). This can be randomly generated, or incremental, but it should be generated by the
system on object creation, not chosen/inputted by the user.
Further recommendations:
• Objects will need to be printed out one by one, it’s recommended that each data structure has a
toString() function which compresses the notable data of the class into a succinct line.
• Each role should be its own class and it should have its own MainMenu method, don’t try and create
separate versions of the menu in Program.cs.
• Don’t get confused by Administrators. Doctors and Patients can’t at any stage have “admin
privileges”; the administrator is a completely separate entity.
• You may find it useful to abstract common functionality into its own class, such as a FileManager
class with static read and write methods or a Utils class which contains the methods to generate
ID’s and filter lists.

Marking Guide
Below is the marking guide for this assessment. It is designed to allow you to get a Pass grade with
minimal effort while still demonstrating that you understand the core principles of .NET development, to get
a Distinction with reasonable effort, and to get a High Distinction with solid effort, and 100% with
considerable effort. It is recommended that you pay attention to the grade distribution and work towards
your own skill level.
In the demos in the lab, your code needs to be compiled in Visual Studio Community edition 2022 and then
the tutor will test for normal functionality as described in the descriptions above. If your code does not
compile you will receive zero marks (no exceptions).

Specific expected tasks and examples
In this assignment, you are required to develop a console-based, menu driven hospital management
system using C#. Necessary data should be stored in “.txt” files. There are 3 core roles in the system.
1. Patient
2. Doctor
3. Administrator
Each of these roles have their own version of the menu with it’s own subset of menu options.
Login Menu
The user should be presented with this menu on program startup and cannot proceed further without
entering valid login details.
Input fields:
- ID: Display the typed characters as is
- Password: Display “*” instead of the actual
characters
ID and password should be checked against valid
credentials inside your files. How you do this depends
on how you’ve structured your classes; but any
patient/doctor or admin should have a unique ID and a
password. These values should be, in some way,
stored in a .txt file, which your code should cross check at this screen. If entered values are not valid,
display appropriate error message and allow the user to retry.
Patient Menu
The patient menu should have all of the following
menu options (see right).
All menu options MUST share this functionality
(see example below):
• Console is emptied to display new data
• Appropriate heading displayed before data
printed
• Error handling for bad user input
• Menu should never return itself, the user
should be able to press a single key to return.
List Patient Details
Functionality: Lists all the fields of the currently
logged in patient to the console.
Input: Key press to return to menu. Assignment

List My
Doctor
Details
Functionality: Lists all the fields of the
doctor that is registered with the
currently logged in patient, to the
console.
It is recommended that the
Doctor
data structure has a toString
function which compresses the
necessary details of the patient into a
short line.
Input: Key press to return to menu.
List All Appointments
Functionality: Lists the details of all past
appointments involving the currently
logged in patient.
Input: Key press to return to menu.
Book Appointment
Functionality: Prompts the user for all
the necessary information to generate a
new appointment. This must be done
with the doctor registered to the user. If
the user has not registered to a doctor,
they should be prompted to choose from
a list of all doctors and register.
Input:
•
Integer to select doctor (if
applicable)
•
All necessary information to
generate your Doctor data
structure
•
Key press to return to menu.

currently logged in doctor to the
console
.
Input: Key press to return to menu.
List Patients
Functionality: Lists a shorthand outline
of every patient that is registered with
the currently logged in doctor to the
console, line by line. It is recommended
that the Patient data structure has a
toString function which compresses the
necessary details of the patient into a
short line.
Input: Key press to return
to menu.
Assignment -1 Spring 2024 8
List Appointments
Functionality: Lists every appointment
involving the currently logged in doctor,
regardless of which patient is involved, to
the console, line by line. It is
recommended that that the Appointment
data structure has a toString function
which compresses the necessary details
of the appointment into a short line.
Input: Key press to return to menu.
Check Particular Patient
Functionality: Prompts the user for an ID and prints the details of the patient whose ID it belongs to, to
the console line by line. If there is no patient with that ID, your code should handle the error and print
an appropriate error message. It is your choice whether the user is prompted to re-enter the ID or if the
program returns to the Patient menu.
Input: Key press to return to menu.
List Appointments With Patient
Functionality: Prompts the user for an
ID and finds the patient with that ID.
Your code should then print every
appointment between that patient and
the currently logged in doctor. (You
should not need to filter this list, as the
patient should have been forced to be
registered to only 1 doctor). If there is
no patient with that ID, your code
should handle the error and print an
appropriate error message. It is your
choice whether the user is prompted to
re-enter the ID or if the program returns
to the Patient menu.
Input: Key press to return to menu. Assignment -1 Spring 2024 9
