Abstract
The object oriented programming (OOP) course that we took during 3 years placed emphasis on the paradigm of advanced Programming techniques. OOP is a programming paradigm that represents concepts as objects that have data fields (attributes that describe the object) and associated procedures known as methods. Objects, which are usually instances of classes, are used to interact with one another to design applications and computer programs. OOP also bases its values on simplicity, communication, feedback and courage. It encourages team work and constant communication with the client. The objective of this project is to put into practice the teachings that we have learnt 3 years. When we were first given this project, we met to determine how we were to carry out the task Assigned to us. We drew up a time-line, discussed about the programming language to use to carry out the task, how the GUI would look like and also to make sure that we understood what was assigned to us. We finally settled for Visual Studio, SQL server as our database and VB,NET as our programming language. We got more information on what we were to do and set about completing our task, making use of the new ideas taught in class, and especially spikes. Our task was to develop a hotel booking system that would keep a record of hotel and client’s data including their information, time there are going to spend in the hotel and other information related to the payment. We have been able to achieve this task. The software we developed can save all that information. Most of the bugs that we found and those that the clients and beta users found have been corrected. Any new bugs found will also be corrected and the software will be updated and released. Because we used object-oriented programming, modifying the software to fix bugs or add a new feature has been relatively easy.
