Case Study II for Object Oriented Programming using Python

Case Study II : Course Registration System

Note: Read this case study fully and understand as this is going to be the business
scenario for all the hands-on assignments given in this document.

Situation: A Course Registration System needs to be developed for an engineering

college. The college wants an automated system to replace its manual system for the
purpose of registration of students to branches and calculation of fees for each year. The
engineering college provides graduation courses in various branches of engineering.
The system will be used by the admin staff to register students admitted to the college to
the branches at the time of joining the college and also to calculate the yearly fees for the
students. The student has to register every year for the next academic year. The Admin
takes care of the yearly registration of the students and the calculation of yearly fees. The
system needs to be authenticated with a login id and password.
Registration of a student to a branch is based on the qualifying exam marks and the
entrance counseling. For every branch, a yearly branch fee is applicable. Discounts are
given to the branch fees of the first year based on the qualifying exam marks. There is a
registration fees also applicable to the first year students. Students can opt to be a day
scholar or hostelite. Yearly bus fees are applicable for all the day scholars based on the
distance of travel. Yearly hostel fees are applicable for all the hostelites. Yearly
infrastructure fees and library fees are also applicable to all the students. Admin
calculates the yearly college fees for each student and the college fees include all the
fees specified earlier based on the type of student. Admin will provide a printed receipt of
the fees to the students once the annual college fees have been paid.
At the time of registration, student has to provide the permanent address and in case the
student is opting to be a day scholar, he/she has to provide the residential address also.

Assumption:
1. Decision of the branch of study a student is allocated, is not within the scope of
this case study

Practice Assignment 1: Identify OO Concepts

Objective: Read the above given business scenario to understand and identify OO
concepts

Problem Description:
Identify the OO concepts applicable for these scenarios:
1. More than 100 faculty members are working in the college to teach various
engineering subjects. Every faculty has some attributes and perform some
activities. How can these attributes and activities be represented using OO
concepts?

2. Student can choose either to be a Day Scholar or a hosteller. If he is a Day

Scholar, Transportation fees is applicable according to the travel distance. If he is
staying hostel, hostel fee and mess fee are applicable. Identify the OO Concepts
used here and write the appropriate class names to implement this scenario.
3. Accountant collects the fees to be paid from all the students irrespective of type
of student. But, the formula used to calculate the fees depends on the student
type. Which OO concept is used here?
4. Certain attributes of the student need to be accessed by the accountant and
some attributes need not be. How can bring this feature into the system and what
is the OO concept used for that?
