Workshop 5 Worth: 4% of final grade

Workshop 5
Worth: 4% of final grade
Breakdown: Part-1 Coding: 10% | Part-2 Coding: 40% | Part-2 Reflection: 50%
Introduction
In this workshop, you will code and execute a C language program applying user-defined data types
(structures). You will be programming a small game that has hidden bombs and treasure along a path
of variable distance. The game requires the player to enter move location commands to reveal what is
hidden at a given position along the path. The object of the game is for the player to find as many
treasures as possible before running out of moves or lives. Discovering a bomb will reduce the player’s
life count. Discovering a treasure will earn the player treasure points. Discovering both, a treasure
with a bomb in the same location will reduce the player’s life count and earn the player treasure points
(consider it a life insurance payout). Prior to playing the game, the program will prompt the user to
perform some upfront configurations to the player and the game components – these settings will
define how the game is played.

Instructions
Download or clone workshop 5 (WS05) from https://github.com/Seneca-144100/IPC-Workshops
Note: If you use the download option, make sure you EXTRACT the files from the .zip archive file
Part-1 will focus on the player and game configuration settings in preparation for gameplay which will
be done in Part-2.
1. Carefully review the “Part-1 Output Example” (next section) to see how this program is expected to
work (Note: This game is highly user-configurable and should be coded to implement the settings
as defined by the user and not be limited to just the example provided – you will have to test your
work thoroughly in both part’s 1 and 2!)
2. Code your program in a file named “w5p1.c”
3. You will need to create a user-defined data type called PlayerInfo which is used for configuring a
player in the game with members that can store the following related information:
• The number of “lives” a player can have for the game
• A character symbol that will be used to represent the player
• A counter to store the number of “treasure’s” found during the game
• A history of all past entered positions entered by the player during the game (hint: you should
size this array based on a macro that represents the maximum path length that a game can be
configured for – see example output to see what the maximum is)
4. You will need to create another user-defined data type called GameInfo which is used for
configuring the game settings with members that can store the following related information:
• The maximum number of “moves” a player can make for a game
• The path length (number of positions) the game path will have for a game
• A series of 0’s and 1’s in an array that represents where bombs are buried along the path (hint:
you should size this array based on a macro that represents the maximum path length that a
game can be configured for – see example output to see what the maximum is)
• A series of 0’s and 1’s in an array that represents where treasure is buried along the path (hint:
you should size this array based on a macro that represents the maximum path length that a
game can be configured for – see example output to see what the maximum is)
5. Configure the player (store these values to a variable of type PlayerInfo):
• Prompt to set the player’s character symbol (any printable character that will represent the
player)
o Note: Place a single space before the % specifier in the scanf to properly read this value
scanf(" %c"...
• Prompt to set the number of lives a player is limited to for the game
o The value must be between 1 and 10 inclusive
o Note: you should design your code so that the maximum value rule can be easily
modified in one place, so you do not need to make changes to the logic of the program
o Validation should repeat as many times as necessary until a valid value is entered
• Make sure the history of moves (all user entered positions during gameplay) is set to a safe
empty state – you should assume there is potentially previous game data still stored that
needs each element to be reset)
6. Configure the game (store these values to a variable of type GameInfo):
• Prompt to set the length of the game path (this is the number of positions in the path)
o The value must be between 10 and 70
o The value must be a multiple of 5
o Note: you should design your code so that these rules (values: 5, 10, 70) can be easily
modified in one place, so you do not need to make changes to the logic of the program
o Validation should repeat as many times as necessary until a valid value is entered
• Prompt to set the maximum number of moves a player can make during gameplay
o The value must be at least the value of the player’s “lives” setting
o The value cannot be greater than 75% of the game’s path length setting (round down to
nearest whole number)
o Validation should repeat as many times as necessary until a valid value is entered
• Prompt to set the BOMB’s placements along the path (within the game’s path length limits)
o Values must be entered 5 at a time (sets of 5) until all positions along the set path
length are set (space delimited)
▪ Reminder: The multiple of 5 rule can be modified with another version of this
application and should be coded with this mind (see note at the beginning of #6)
o A ‘1’ value represents a hidden bomb, while a ‘0’ value represents no bomb
o Note: You do not need to validate for 1’s and 0’s; you may assume this is entered
properly
• Prompt to set the TREASURE placements along the path (within the game’s path length limits)
o The same rules apply as described for the bomb settings
7. As the last major step, display a summary of the values entered that will define the gameplay

Part-2 (40%)
Instructions
Part-2 involves implementing the gameplay logic based on the configuration settings done from Part-1.
1. Review the “Part-2 Output Example” (next section) to see how the application is expected to work
Reminder:
This game is highly user-configurable and should be coded to implement the settings as defined by
the user and not be limited to just the example provided – you will have to test your work
thoroughly in both part’s 1 and 2!
2. Code your program in a file named “w5p2.c”
3. Display the “board” which includes:
• Line-1: The player’s most recent move position identified using the player’s set symbol
• Line-2: The game path:
o - : (hyphen) represents undiscovered locations
o ! : represents bombs
o $ : represents treasure
o &: represents both a bomb and treasure
o . : represents a visited location that had neither a bomb nor a treasure
o Hint: Use the player’s history member array to determine if you should reveal the
hidden bomb and/or treasure, if a player has visited the position/location, then check
what symbol to show by checking the game’s bombs and treasure member array’s
• Line-3: Position/location ruler (major) which will show the 1
st number in every 10 positions
o (10, 20, 30, etc.)
• Line-4: Position/location ruler (minor) which shows each numeric position starting at 1
Note:
The ‘ruler’ helps the user quickly locate positions and identify previously entered move commands.
Hint: This is dynamically displayed based on the game’s setting for the path length member
4. Display the player’s statistics.
• Lives: is a counter of how many lives are remaining (when this is zero, gameplay ends)
• Treasures: is a counter of how many treasures were found during gameplay
• Moves Remaining: is a countdown of remaining moves (when this is zero, gameplay ends)
• Use the following (add the variables for substitution accordingly where needed):
printf("+---------------------------------------------------+\n");
printf(" Lives: %2d | Treasures: %2d | Moves Remaining: %2d\n"...
printf("+---------------------------------------------------+\n");
5. Prompt for the player’s next move (location along the path)
• The entered value must be at least 1 and no more than the game’s configuration setting for the
path length
• Validation should repeat as many times as necessary until a valid value is entered
6. Check to see if the entered location was previously visited
• You should refer to the player’s history array to see if the location was previously visited (the
value will be 1)
• If the location was previously visited, display a meaningful message to indicate the location has
already been visited
• Do NOT deduct a move from the game’s move counter
7. If the entered location was not previously visited:
• Record the location to the player’s history array by setting the appropriate element value to 1
(the index is determined by the entered location)
• Reduce the moves counter by 1
• Check the game’s bomb member array (the index is determined by the entered location) to see
if there is a hidden bomb (value will be 1)
o Reduce the player’s lives counter by 1
o Display an appropriate message (use symbol: [!] to denote a bomb)
• Check the game’s treasure member array (the index is determined by the entered location) to
see if there is a hidden treasure (value will be 1)
o Increase the player’s treasure counter by 1
o Display an appropriate message (use symbol: [$] to denote a treasure)
• Check for BOTH a bomb AND a treasure
o Check both the bomb and treasure member arrays to see if a value of 1 is set for both at
the same location
o Update the player’s counters accordingly (bomb: reduce lives, treasure: increase
treasure counter)
o Display an appropriate message (use symbol: [&] to denote a bomb AND treasure, the
treasure is considered a “life insurance payout”)
• If there is no bomb or treasure at the location entered by the user
o Display an appropriate message (use symbol: [.] to denote nothing found)
Note: The symbols used in the messages will match to what is shown in the game’s board
when displayed (step #3 “line-2”)
8. Keep iterating (looping) (from #3) until the gameplay ends based on the following criteria:
• The number of player lives reaches 0
• The number of allowed moves reaches 0
9. Display a “Game Over” message along with an exit/end of program message.
