void readOption$($char &option$).$

This function will read an option and return to the called function through the reference parameter.

You must do validation to make sure that the character is E$/$e or Q$/$q and nothing other than that. Use a while loop to do this.

void encode$($char encodeFileName$[])$

This should be a void function that takes $1$ char array encodeFileName.

Declare appropriate local variables.

Call the readInput$()$ function to read student$$s names and lateFlag.

Call the readInput$()$ function to read Student ID and filename.

Call the readTime$()$ function to read the submitted time.

Fill the encodeFileName array based on the six pieces of information adding underscores between.

Start with the student$$s names, if the assignment is late, put LATE in the filename and nothing otherwise, add the parsed Student ID$,$ add the time, without the colon, and then finally add the filename.

For example: If late: smith$\_$sue$\_$LATE$\_5587\_1824\_$prog$2.$c

If it is not late: smith$\_$sue$\_5587\_1824\_$prog$2.$c

Use strncpy$()$ and strcat$()$ functions $-$ refer to Sections $10\mathrm{.}4$ and $10\mathrm{.}5$ C$-$String library functions in your zyBooks. Look at my example code file.

void readInput$($char fName$[],$ char lName$[],$ bool &lateFlag$)-$ overloaded function

This void function should take $2$ char arrays and $1$ bool variable by reference.

It reads the student$$s first name, last name and if the assignment is late or not. Student last name $($e$.$g$.$ Smith$)($char array$).$ Student first name $($e$.$g$.$ Sue$)($char array$)$

Make sure all character data for the student$$s name is lowercase $-$ you may write a function to convert a cstring to all lowercase.

If the assignment was late or not $($e$.$g$.,$ Y or N$)($bool var$).$ Must do data validation for this.

Hint: Remember an overloaded function has the same function name but different types of parameters or the number of parameters are different.

void readInput$($char parsedID$[],$ char fileName$[])-$ overloaded function

This void function should take $1$ char array for the parsed $4$ digit Student ID that will be returned and another char array for the filename.

The Student ID $($e$.$g$.,977-15-5587)($char array$)$ is a local variable. Use the strncpy$()$ function to copy from position $7$ till the end of the string. strncpy$($parsedID$,$ stdID $+7,4)$ will copy $4$ characters from the $7$th position in the stdID string to the parsedID string. Check out this example code file.

The name of the file $($e$.$g$.,$ prog$2.$cpp$)($char array$)$

void readTime$($char strTime$[])$

This is a void function that should read the time from the user as $2$ integers and return one char array by reference $($that is the strTime array$).$

The time read from the user will be in military time $($e$.$g$..18$:$24$ for $6$:$24$pm$)(2$ ints, one for hour and one for mins$).$ Check out this example code file to extract the numbers and convert them to a cstring. This example is not quite sophisticated. You must do data validation by checking the hours are between $0$ and $24$ and the minutes are between $0$ and $60.$

This function must do data validation for the numbers and the HH:MM format. Make sure the colon : is used to separate the mins and hours.
