DOC on the GO

About

DOC on the GO is an object-oriented C++ project designed to manage doctor appointments and database operations seamlessly. This application allows administrators to maintain a doctor database by adding, editing, and removing doctor records. Additionally, patients can use the system to find doctors and schedule appointments efficiently. This project is made under the course Object Oriented Programming Laboratory (CSE 2102) associated with Khulna University of Engineering & Technology.

Features

• Admin Panel:

  • Login Authentication: Secure access to the admin panel with email and password.
  • Doctor Database Management: Admins can add, edit, and remove doctor records.
  • View Doctor List: Admins can view the entire list of doctors and their details.

• Patient Interface:

  • View Doctor List: Patients can view available doctors and their details.
  • Schedule Appointments: Patients can schedule appointments with doctors based on the available visiting hours.

Functionalities

1. Admin Functionalities:

   • Add Doctor: Add new doctors to the database with details like code, name, department, fees, and visiting hours.
   • Edit Doctor: Modify existing doctor details in the database.
   • Remove Doctor: Remove doctor records from the database.
   • View Doctor List: Display all doctors and their details.

2. Patient Functionalities:

   • View Doctor List: Display all available doctors and their details.
   • Make Appointment: Schedule an appointment with a selected doctor by entering the doctor code and patient details.

File Handling

The project utilizes file handling to maintain persistence in the doctor database and patient appointments:

• docinfo.txt: Stores doctor details including code, name, department, fees, and visiting hours.
• receipt.txt: Generates a receipt for patient appointments with details of the patient and the scheduled appointment.

How to Use

1. Admin Access:

   • Select the "Use as Admin" option.
   • Login with the email: [email protected] and password: doctor.
   • Manage doctor database by selecting appropriate options from the admin panel.

2. Patient Access:

   • Select the "Use as a Patient" option.
   • View available doctors and schedule appointments by entering the doctor code and your details.

Code Structure

• menu: Displays the main menu and directs users to admin or patient functionalities.
• admin: Displays admin panel and provides options to manage doctor database.
• patient: Displays patient interface and provides options to view doctors and schedule appointments.
• add: Allows admins to add new doctors to the database.
• edit: Allows admins to modify existing doctor records.
