A student has a first name, last name, id, email address, password, and max number of credits they can take in a given semester. To protect the student’s information, the student’s password should be hashed using SHA-256 when stored. Note that the hashed values may look different depending on what application you are using to view the input file.

When stored in a text file, a student record is a comma separated list in the following format:

firstName,lastName,id,email,hashedPassword,maxCredits

Invalid Student Records

A student record is invalid in at least the following situations:

• an item is missing
• first name is null or an empty string
• last name is null or an empty string
• id is null or an empty string
• email is null or an empty string
• email doesn’t contain an ‘@’ character
• email doesn’t contain a ‘.’ character
• the index of the last ‘.’ character in the email string is earlier than the index of the first ‘@’ character (e.g., first.last@address would be invalid)
• the password is null or an empty string
• max credits is below 3 or above 18

Course Records

Course records can be saved and loaded from a file in the correct format. An example of a valid file would be:

A course has a course name, course title, section number, number of credit hours, instructor’s unity id, enrollment capacity, meeting days, start time, and end time. When stored in a text file, a course record is a comma separated list in the following format:

courseName,courseTitle,sectionNumber,creditHours,instructorUnityID,enrollmentCap,meetingDays,startTime,endTime

When processing a text file with a faculty’s unity id, the Faculty Directory is searched for a faculty member with the matching id. If the faculty member is found, the course is added to the faculty member’s schedule [UC23] and the instructor id is set for the course. If there is no faculty with the given id in the Faculty Directory, the instructor id is set to null.

Invalid Course Records

A course record is invalid in at least the following situations:

• an item is missing
• the course name is null or an empty string
• the course name doesn’t meet the format of beginning with 1-4 letters, followed by exactly 3 digits, followed by an optional 1 letter suffix
• the course name is fewer than 4 characters or greater than 8 characters
• the course title is null or an empty string
• the section number is NOT exactly three digits
• the credit hours are not a number
• the credit hours are less than 1 or greater than 5
• the instructor’s id is null or an empty string
• the enrollment capacity is less than 10 or greater than 250
• meeting days consist of any characters other than ‘M’, ‘T’, ‘W’, ‘H’, ‘F’, or ‘A’
• meeting days have a duplicate character
• if ‘A’ is in the meeting days list, it must be the only character
• the start time is not between 0000 and 2359 an invalid military time
• the end time is not between 0000 and 2359 or an invalid military time
• the end time is less than the start time (i.e., no overnight classes)
• a start time and/or end time is listed when meeting days is ‘A’
• a course with the same name and section

A faculty has a first name, last name, id, email address, password, and max number of courses they teach in a given semester (i.e., their course load). To protect the faculty’s information, the faculty’s password should be hashed using SHA-256 when stored. Note that the hashed values may look different depending on what application you are using to view the input file.

When stored in a text file, a facutly record is a comma separated list in the following format:

firstName,lastName,id,email,hashedPassword,maxCourses

Invalid Faculty Records

A faculty record is invalid in at least the following situations:

• an item is missing
• first name is null or an empty string
• last name is null or an empty string
• id is null or an empty string
• email is null or an empty string
• email doesn’t contain an ‘@’ character
• email doesn’t contain a ‘.’ character
• the index of the last ‘.’ character in the email string is smaller than the index of the first ‘@’ character (e.g., first.last@address would be invalid)
• the password is null or an empty string
• max courses is under 1 or above 3
