Abstract

The main objective of this project is to make an application using C language. An

application is created for adding contact details like mobile number, address and email id.
User can easily add the entries, edit or delete them. Every possible thing is done to make
this program simple in operating by user. As soon as the application opens a list of choices
are displayed to user. User have to select any of these operators.

Introduction

Many people struggle to keep a note of contacts and the details related to them. Also it
consumes a lot of time effort to manage them. To avoid these problems user can use this
program to manage the details. It is a simple console application without graphics. In
this application we can add, view, edit, search and delete contacts. All added and edited
records will be saved in a file.We can list contacts by name, phone no., address and email.
File handling will be used to record all data. This project will help to add, edit, search, list
and remove data using file.

Methodology

File handling is used to record all data.

 As soon as the application starts a list (as shown below) of operators is displayed to user

Now the user has to enter a choice, which are

1. Add a new contact - The user can add new contact information.
2. List all saved contact – The user can list all the saved contacts.
3. Search for contact – The user can search for any contact.
4. Edit a contact – The user can edit any saved contact.
5. Delete a contact – The user can delete any saved contact.
6. Exit – The user can close the application.

Conclusions
To summarise, an application is created for adding contact details like mobile number,
address and email id. User can easily add the entries, edit or delete them. Every possible
thing is done to make this program simple in operating by user.
It provides us with the following benefits :
 Group your contacts into categories
 Save time with the Search and Filter option

Future prospects
Our project will be able to implement in future after making some changes and
modifications as we make our project at a very low level. So, the modifications that can be
done in our projects are:
1. More operators will be added
2. I will try to develop the graphics of plotting graph.
3. I will make this program more user friendly.
4. I will try to store the datas in a new way so that user can access them.
