ASSIGNMENT QUESTION
PURPOSE
The purpose of this assignment is to develop data structures using C language to solve a given problem and demonstrate the implementation of appropriate data structure features with suitable test data and output.
PART I / BAHAGIAN I
REQUIREMENT
Question 1
You are required to write a C program that will input the number of students and reserve the memory space dynamically. You need to store the student’s name, ID and Culmulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) together as one unit. In order to do this, you must use a structure data type.
Next, you must declare ptr as a pointer of struct student * type (that can point to the location of struct student type) as shown below:
struct student *ptr;
Then, use a linked list data structure to store the student information in nodes and link them. You can use the operator - to access the data in the structure through ptr.
Finally, your program should count and display the average cgpa entered for the n students. The linked list must be sorted by students’ name in ascending order before it is displayed to the user. The sample output is shown below:

The assessment will be done based on the following criteria:
i. A proper writing of C codes: structure, efficiency and modular.
ii. The readability, consistency, naming and user interface
iii. Robustness and testing
iv. Complete documentation and correct submission.
Note: You MUST write C programming codes for this assignment. Codes written in C++ will not be accepted.
You are required to submit:
1. Documentation file (*.doc/*.docx) that contains introduction, description of problem, program listing and its comments and print screen of the program output.
2. Source file (*.c)
(50 marks)
