Web Programming Lab

You might have stared preparing for your Lab internal exams. Here I give you the lab programs written by me in Web designing. This will help you in case you are not finding all of them at one place. I'm not sure with the output of 5(b). Please verify whether it is the required output or not.

~3.5 MB

Unzip the file and copy the entire folder in the root directory of your web server. If you have installed XAMPP, then the root directory is C:\xampp\htdocs. The best way to learn web designing is to make changes in the code and learn its effects.

One important thing. For typing these programs I highly recommend you to use Notepad++. This is a special editor especially for programmers. If you don't have it, then you can download it for free at http://download.cnet.com/Notepad/3000-2352_4-10327521.html. You can also use other softwares such as Aptana Studio. For Aptana Studio you need to have Java runtime installed on you system. You can download Java runtime for free if you don't have it. You can also use Microsoft Expression Web.

I am aware that you need lab programs in Computer Networks also. Don't worry I'll be posting it very soon. Till then, hope this helps.

FS lab program corrections

You need to make these corrections in the programs (you might have taken the print outs):

1. First program is not satisfying the question. In case 2, take input from a file (and not stdin) and use getline for reading (and not >> operator).

2. In unpack method of RRN, variable length, primary index and secondary index programs, change the last statement from
p = strtok(NULL, "#"); strcpy(marks, p);
to
p = strtok(NULL, "\n"); strcpy(marks, p);

3. In the delete method in both the primary index and secondary index program, change the comment from
//we delete the record only in the index file
to
//we delete the record only in the record file

4. In the delete method in the linked list program, change the condition from
if(strcmp(first->usn, _usn) != 0) {
to
if(strcmp(first->usn, _usn) == 0) {

These are the updated programs except first one.

Let me know the corrections to make in my programs

Hi,

As most of you have followed my programs in file structures lab, I'm very happy. But there were some minor corrections in the programs as some of our friends reported.

As most of you have also taken the print outs of my programs, I will post the corrections so that you can just mark in your print outs and the program will remain the same. The first program was not satisfying the question and the correct program was posted by Hardik on my blog ourmanish.blogspot.com

I need some help from you. Please debug my programs for various inputs and let me know about the corrections. Reply before sunday so that I can post the corrections to all.

Regards,
Manish

Updated programs for FS lab

Hi friends,

Finally I have done the program for B-trees and B+ trees. There were some minor corrections to make in the earlier programs as well. So here is the link to download all the 12 programs fully updated.
Kindly delete the programs which you had downloaded earlier. Before studying any program, make sure that you are getting output for it. My first program is not satisfying the question. You have to use two input files for the second case: one is the input file from which you read the names and the other is the output file into which you write the reversed names. I didn't take an input file. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Best,
Manish

FS Lab videos

Dear all,


I am very happy that my work on the video tutorials of FILE STRUCTURES LAB was greatly appreciated. Thanks to all.


But there are some corrections you need to make:
1. The sorting of the index files is mandatory and not optional as I have mentioned in the video. Even though the program will work well if the index file is not sorted, Divya madam told me that its mandatory.
2. There was a minor logical error in the "hashing" program, even though you are getting the output. I had skipped just one line in the retrieve case.
3. For the "linked list" program the file should not be opened in ios::app mode
You can download the updated programs by clicking here.
The old link to download will also link to the updated programs now.

Here are the the links to download the remaining video tutorials.


6. Index to secondary key
7. Co-sequential processing
8. K - way merge
11. Hashing
12. Reclaiming free space using linked list

I have also made a video of the making of these videos. If you are interested then here is the link to download the making
Making of FS videos


Please let me know your views and suggestions and errors if any.

File Structures Lab

Hi friends,

I discovered recently that most of you are facing difficulties in File Structures Lab. It is also very difficult to memorise the programs. Keeping this in my mind, I have for you the programs written in a very simple style. These programs are comparatively shorter and are self explanatory.

Here is the link to download the lab programs. I have done all programs except B-trees and B+ trees. These 2 programs will be posted by next week.

And to your surprise, I am also making video tutorials for each lab program and also a video featuring Introduction to FS Lab. (5 + 1) videos are already finished and the links to them are below:

Introduction to FS Lab

1. Reversing the names

2. Fixed length records

3. Variable length records

4. RRN - Variable length

5. Index to primary key

One request i want to make is please study each program perfectly before moving to the next one. Watch the videos sequentially, starting from the first to the last, because the concepts are linked from the previous program to the next program.

The rest of the videos are under construction and will be posted soon. Sorry for the delay but I am in my hometown. Please do watch these and post me your comments and suggestions which I am eagerly waiting for.

Regards,
Manish kumar
