HW 01 - Processing input data and computing statistics

Write a program that:

• has to have at least one input argument passed on the command line, e.g. ./program_name first_argument
• displays the first argument and also prints a selection menu to standard output, e.g.

Welcome! The input parameter is "/dev/ttyACM0"
== program menu ==
Item 1: Control LED
Item 2: Read button state
Item 3: Read joystick
Item 4: Control display
Item c: Enter a custom command
Item e: Exit
Selection:

• then the program waits for user input. The program will react just on the allowed options and if wrong selection is made then it prints “Wrong option” to stderr
• selections 1 to 4 will cause redraw of the menu
• selection 'c' will allow the user to enter a string which will be printed to the standard output - see the example:

Welcome! The input paramenter is "/dev/ttyACM0"
== program menu ==
Item 1: Control LED
Item 2: Read button state
Item 3: Read joystick
Item 4: Control display
Item c: Enter a custom command
Item e: Exit
Selection:

Enter commnad: 

The command  is "*IDN?"

== program menu ==
Item 1: Control LED
Item 2: Read button state
Item 3: Read joystick
Item 4: Control display
Item c: Enter a custom command
Item e: Exit
Selection:

• the program will provide return value TRUE
• the program will be presented to the lab. instructor

These parameters of the program will be evaluated:

• 1 point - student is able to compile the program on the command line and it is possible to run the program on the computer
• 1 point - the program generates the menu in a loop - all options are working
• 1 point - the program exits with e option properly without any memory lead - check by valgrind
• 1 point - the program takes an input parameter passed over the command line and prints it for one time before all menus
• 1 point - the program is capable to read a custom command and print the command on the standard output
