Comprehensive Hostel Management System Project - CS/IT Program

This project outlines a hostel management system designed for Wisdom College, Langkawi, catering to CS/IT/IS students. The system, developed using C programming, addresses the college's accommodation needs by managing student entries, room availability, and payment processing. The assignment includes detailed pseudocode for core functionalities such as adding student entries, checking room availability based on gender, calculating total payments, and retrieving student details. Furthermore, the project incorporates payment options, including card payment and cancellation features. The system considers the limited services available in the new hostel, focusing on managing the available blocks, room types, and associated services like laundry and gym. The project also includes flowcharts, a test specification table, and sample outputs to demonstrate the system's functionality and adherence to the requirements. The project aims to provide an efficient and user-friendly solution for hostel management, making it easier for administrators to manage student accommodations and related services.
