HKACE Sample 1

Library System
XYZ Secondary School has a library system for recording the book borrowing transaction.
The system scans the bar code on student ID as well as the book for the borrowing
transaction. Similar process is used for book return. The book borrowing and return forms are
illustrated below.
Book Borrowing Form

Transaction no 17001983

Student number: 2015234

Book ISBN: 978-986-434-005-7

Student Name: Chan Tai Man

Book name: Elementary Python

Date of borrowing: 2017-05-25

OK Cancel

Task 1 (Design & Implementation)

Create a prototype of the DBMS of the library system of the school, focusing on the book
borrowing and returning process. The prototype should include

 the data dictionary of the database tables involved (e.g. student ID data and
book details)
 an ER diagram and the corresponding database schema
 manage the daily operations of library:
(i) Write an SQL command to find the borrowing records of “Chan Tai Man”.
(ii) Write an SQL command to find the name of the borrowers of the book
“Elementary Python”.
(iii) Write an SQL command to list the book with more than one borrowing
records in the year of 2017.

You may consider some of the following key factors when designing the prototype:

 three levels of data abstraction, namely conceptual level, physical level and
view level
 relational database design
 data redundancy
 data integrity
 SQL implementation
 user-friendliness

Create a presentation and/or documents to briefly describe the components involved in

designing the prototype.

珠璣妙算 Mastermind

珠璣妙算 (Mastermind) 遊戲是由一個玩家設置一項神祕密碼，讓另一位

玩家在最少猜測次數嘗試破譯該謎底。你將會編寫程式執行一個此遊戲的簡化版

當中電腦扮演謎底設定者的角色，而你作為玩家則嘗試破譯謎底，其設定如下：

 電腦遊戲開始時，提供選單讓玩家選擇一項行動，選單有以下的選

項:

 開始遊戲

 顯示遊戲規則

 查看最近 10 名玩家的紀錄 (增潤部份)

 離開遊戲

 電腦隨機產生四個介乎 1 至 4 的隨機數，來代表四種顏色的彩珠，

例如：1 代表紅色 (R)、2 代表綠色 (G)、3 代表黃色 (Y) 和 4 代表紫色 (M)；

 謎底的彩珠可以重複；

 當你作出猜測後，電腦會立即以提示珠來提供回饋；

 黑色 (B) 提示珠表示你對某彩珠猜測的顏色和位置均正確；

 白色 (W) 提示珠表示你對某彩珠猜測的顏色正確，但位置不符；

 你可以嘗試的次數是按你選擇的難度而定，例如：「初級」程度容許

12 次、「中級」程度容許 10 次和「挑戰」程度容許 8 次；

 當你破譯了 4 顆彩珠的謎底而勝出，或已用盡了所有的次數時，遊

戲就終結；

 當遊戲終結時，若玩家仍未能破譯謎底，最後會向玩家揭示謎底；

 假若玩家能破譯迷底，遊戲會記錄該玩家的破譯時間（增潤部份）
