C- QUIZ
project which can be simply understand by the admin so that they can make full use of the
software. Some constraints may arise such as this program cannot be worked on national bases
as this program is basically for the new users so they can take the advantage of checking their
knowledge by itself. This program may also be used on school or college level for taking the
inter quiz as it is a very simple program with simple commands.

2.5 Assumptions and Dependencies

In this project C language plays an important role as all the coding and functions are basically
used in c language. For making this project, user (admin) has to learn some functions and terms
which are commonly used in C language which are given below:-

1) Stdlib.h
2) String.h
3) Dos.h
4) Gets
5) Fflush
6) Fclose
7) Fseek
8) Fopen
9) Getmaxx
10) Fopen
Thats why a person should have a basic knowledge of C language to make complete use of this
project.

3. Specific Requirements
Firstly, as this project is being developed in c language using the concept of file handling so
admin should have the proper knowledge of the features and concepts used in the software.
Secondly, operating system that is to be used with the software must be compatible with the
software.
