Rubrics for Programming projects (75 points)

Q3. Calculate score for a 10-pin bowling game, which usually have 10 frames. The score is based on the number of pins
knocked down. You are to enter the number of pins knocked down for each throw for each frame, giving correct extra
points for strikes and spares.

GROUP MEMBERS MATRIC NO

Programming Project comprises of four components:

Components Points Due Date
A Program Analysis 10 14 September 2012
B Algorithm and Flowchart 15 21 September 2012
C Program Code 25 5 October 2012
D Project Presentation 25 12 October 2012

A - Program Analysis
Students are expected to analyze the programming problem and identify the requirements to solve the problem, in terms of input
data needed, the output with its format and layout.

B - Algorithm and Flowchart

Students are expected to present the solution of the given problem, using a flow chart to show the algorithm as clearly and detailed
as possible.

C - Program Code
Students are to submit the programming code for the project which has been coded to follow the five criteria of a good program.

D - Project Presentation
Students are to present their project in the Computer Lab and show a live demonstration of their program in front of the class
instructor(s) and peers. The presentation must first introduce the initial problem and its solution.
