Question

A Private Poly Clinic in City wish to develop software to automate their Patient Monitoring system for storing the details of the patients visited the clinic. Develop a system to meet the following requirements:

  

Patient Id	Fees in (OMR)	Gender
P001	15	M
P002	10	F
P003	20	M
P004	8	F
P005	12	M

Read the fees paid by ‘N’ patients into a one dimensional array in random order. Develop an algorithm, flow chart and write a C program to arrange the fees read in ascending order. Display the result with appropriate statements.

Answer 1

Screenshot of the code:

Code ( Text Format )

#include <stdio.h>

typedef struct Patient {

char id[10];

int fees;

char gender;

} Patient;

void swapPatients(Patient *xp, Patient *yp)

{

  Patient temp = *xp;

  *xp = *yp;

  *yp = temp;

}

void SortPatients(Patient arr[], int n)

{

  int i, j, min_idx;

  for (i = 0; i < n-1; i++)

  {

    min_idx = i;

    for (j = i+1; j < n; j++)

     if (arr[j].fees < arr[min_idx].fees)

       min_idx = j;

    swapPatients(&arr[min_idx], &arr[i]);

  }

}

int main()

{

  Patient patients[100];

int n, i;

printf("Enter total number of patients");

scanf("%d", &n);

for(i = 0 ; i < n ; i++)

{

printf("Enter the details of patient %d:\n", i+1);

printf("Enter the ID of the Patient: ");

scanf("%s" , patients[i].id);

printf("Enter the Fees of the Patient: ");

scanf("%d" , &patients[i].fees);

printf("Enter the Gender of the Patient: ");

scanf("%s" , &patients[i].gender);

}

SortPatients(patients, n);

printf("Details with fees in ascending order are: \n");

printf("Pateint Id Fees Gender");

for (i = 0; i < n; i++){

printf("\n %s %d %c", patients[i].id, patients[i].fees, patients[i].gender);

}

}

Sample Output :

Input :

Output :

Flow Chart:

Algorithm :

Step 1 : Start

Step 2 : Enter the number of patients

Step 3 : Enter the Details of Patients ( Read Patient ID , Fees and Gender )

Step 4 : Do sorting in ascending order according to fees   

Step 5 : Print the final sorted details of the Patients

Step 6 : End
