Guidelines for Practical List: Here Considering all aims if we can use these as a features of any application, we can get implemented two projects or two small applications (Windows Application and Web Application) by incorporating all practical of respective stream. We would follow VB.NET as programming language. For ASP.NET use of VB script is preferable. Please go through the operating manner describe below in next page


Any Application Development is developed in three layers 1) User Interface – Windows Forms and Windows Form Controls, Master Forms

Web Controls with Skins, Master Pages, Themes, Skins etc. 2) Business Logic – Using Constructors, Events, Inheritance and required etc.

& for Web Application State Management 3) Database – ADO.NET with Data Controls and Reports Generation

This can accomplish a 75% work for a Windows/Web Application. Remaining work is testing and validating the Input, which is also included in the practical list. Polishing the application will remain only. Here we can ask them to work for past analyzed project also. Example-1: .Assume that a bank maintains two kinds of accounts for customers, one called as ‘savings account’ and the other as ‘current account’. The savings account provides compound interest and withdraws as facilities but no chequebook facility .The current account provides chequebook facility but no interest. Current account holders should also maintain a minimum balance and if the balance falls below this level, a service charge is imposed. Create an abstract class ‘Account’ that stores customers name, account number and type of account. From this derive classes’ cur_acct and sav_acct to make them more specific to their requirements. Include necessary member functions in order to achieve the following tasks. a) Accept deposit from a customer and update the balance b) Display the balance c) Compute & deposit interest d) Permit withdrawal and update the balance e) Check for the minimum balance, impose penalty necessary and update the balance. (Use Constructors, Properties, method overloading) Generate various reports for the organization , there is a namespace bit.edu and under that namespace there are three namespace such as Admin, Account, and Computer. Under the admin namespace there is a class called CollegeReports and interface called Report and CollegeReports class implements the Report interface and Account class implements also Report interface in account name space and ComputerReports class also implements Report interface Example-2 For Data Types, Expressions, Control Structures, Modifiers Exception Handling We can give some application description as below. A Program, it behaves like calculator. Take three arguments from user, two numbers and one operator and display proper result. Use command line Arguments. Define exception called ExWrongInput to handle invalid input, also handle DivideByZeroException and catch other necessary application exceptions.
