CSCI 457 Assignment 4 – Address book
Please develop an app to show the list of all branches of an organization. The branches should be located
at different places. You can choose whatever organization you like, and it can be either realistic or fictional.
For example, Walmart stores, KFC restaurants, Global Defense Initiative (fictional) bases, etc.
Requirements:
• The list of the branches should be displayed in a table.
• The cells in the table must have a colorful background. You may use any color except black, white,
and gray.
• Each cell of the table should contain a thumbnail of that branch, with its name and city.
• When the user taps on a cell, a new view will pop up, showing the location of the branch on the
map.
• The pin on the map should contain a thumbnail of the branch, with its address.
• On the top-right corner of the map, there should be a button. When the user taps the button, the
map should be closed, and the program shall return to the table of the branches. (Hint: Use unwind
in Lecture 12.)
• When you submit this assignment, please compress the entire project folder into a single zip file
and upload it to the submission link.
You can find more hints in Lectures 10, 11, 12, and 13.
Here is a sample app. It shows a list of public universities in the State of New York.
CSCI457 Assignment 2 – Hexadecimal Calculator
Implement a hexadecimal calculator for iOS.
Requirements:
• The calculator should support 4 basic arithmetic
operations: + – * and /
• The calculator will operate on hexadecimal numbers, not
decimal numbers
• The calculator only needs to operate on unsigned integers
(i.e. UInt). You do not need to consider negative numbers
or fractions.
• The calculator should support the 16-digit hexadecimal
numbers (i.e. The range of the numbers is from 0 to FFFF
FFFF FFFF FFFF). Prevent the user from entering a number
that is greater than FFFF FFFF FFFF FFFF.
• The calculator should handle overflow and underflow
gracefully. The app must not crash.
• The calculator should handle division-by-zero error
gracefully. The app must not crash.
• The calculator should be able to support most of the
devices and orientations. If it does not support the old
devices earlier than iPhone 6, it is okay.
Hint:
• To convert a string to a hex number, use “radix: 16” as an
argument. For example:
var s:String?
s = “1A”
var intHex:UInt = 0
intHex = UInt(s!, radix: 16)!
print(intHex) // shows 26
intHex = 90
s = String(intHex, radix: 16).uppercased()
print(s!) // shows 5A
• It is recommended that you use a UI label instead of a text
field, so that the user will not type directly by using a
keyboard. You will need to provide a button for each digit.
• Strings may be concatenated by using + operator. E.g.
var s1 = “1234”
var s2 = “5”
print(s1 + s2) // shows 12345
You may want to do string concatenation in the action of
each digit button.
• To prevent the user from entering a number exceeding the
size of 16 digits, you may verify the length of the string
associated with the UI label.
• To handle overflow and underflow, use &+, &-, and &*
instead of +, -, and *.
• To support different devices and orientations, use stack
view, scroll view, or both.
• Design your algorithm first! Think about the status of the
calculator: when to take the first operand, when to take
the second operand, when to append digits to the current
number, and when to refresh the current number, etc.
The functionality of your hex calculator worth 60% of the
credit, while the appearance of the user interface worth 40%.
When you submit the assignment, please compress the entire
project folder into a single zip file, and upload it to D2L. In
addition, please provide 4 to 5 screenshots of your app in
different devices and orientations. If your app doesn’t work on
every device/orientation, please specify why.
The screenshots of a sample program are shown below. Your UI
does not have to be the same as the sample program. As long as
it has a pleasing looking, it should be fine.
