Problem: You have to develop a system for a Grocery Store let us call it Grocery Store Management System. Your system should be able to store data related to the grocery items. The details of the items must be maintained to develop a repository. The system should be able to generate bills for the customers and update the repository whenever there is a sale transaction. Furthermore, the system should be able to prompt if a certain item runs out so that the manager may decide for timely reinforcements. You are required to do the following: 1) Start by reading the data (i.e grocery items) from a file which would contain the details as shown below. Set a limit to the number of items to be stored in the store (say 50). Every item may or may not have a fixed number of quantity available (say 50 boxes/bottles/packs). Once you upload the data, you can now work on the successive parts respectively. (10 Marks) (CLO2) (CLO4) The information related to the item(s) is as follows: • Product ID • Product Name • Weight • Mfg date • Exp date • Price (per pack/per bottle) • Quantity 2) Now that you have the data available with you, you must do the following: (20 Marks) (CLO3) (CLO4) • Insert new item • Delete an item • Update quantity (increase or decrease) • Update Mfg/Exp dates • Update price • Search the price of an item • Search the remaining quantity of an item Remember these functionalities will be used time and again so you need to use appropriate programming practices. Furthermore, system should prompt the user once an item runs out of quantity. 3) Now that the system is ready for the sale transactions. The system should be able to display bills for the purchased quantities inculcating tax amount and discounts (if any). The same receipt should be output to a file so that the customer may get a print-out. (10 Marks) (CLO4) Bonus Tasks: a. System should prompt the user once an item is expired. For that you may need the current date. b. If an item is nearing the end i.e a certain amount (say 10 tablets) is left, user may be reminded about getting the supplies for that item.

• Insert new item
• Delete an item
• Update quantity (increase or decrease)
• Update Mfg/Exp dates
• Update price
• Search the price of an item
• Search the remaining quantity of an item
