PRACTICAL COMPONENT OF IPCC

1. Develop a Java program to add TWO matrices of suitable order N.

2. Develop a stack class to hold a maximum of 10 integers with suitable methods. Develop a Java main

method to illustrate Stack operations.

3. Create a Java class called Student with the USN,Name,Branch,Phone details as variables within it.
Write a Java program to create N Student objects and print the USN, Name, Branch, and Phone of these
objects with suitable headings.
4. Develop a Java program to create a class named Shape. Create three sub classes, namely: circle,
triangle and square. Each class has two member functions named draw and erase. Demonstrate the
concepts of polymorphism by developing appropriate methods, defining member data, and
implementing the main program.
5. Develop a Java program to create an interface Resizable with methods resizeWidth(int width) and
resizeHeight(int height) that allow an object to be resized. Create a class Rectangle that implements
the Resizable interface and implements the resize methods.
6. Develop a Java program to create a package named mypack and import & implement it in a suitable
class.
7. Develop a Java program to raise a custom exception (user-defined exception) for DivisionByZero
using try, catch, throw and finally.
8. Develop a program to create a class MyThread with a class constructor, call the base class
constructor, using super and start the thread. The run method of the class starts after this. It can be
observed that both main thread and created child thread are executed concurrently.

9. Develop a Java program using an enumeration called Department containing CSE, ISE, ECE, and
MECH. Accept a department name as input and display the selected department using valueOf().
10. Develop a Java program to read the marks of three subjects as strings, convert them into wrapper
objects, calculate the total and average using autoboxing/unboxing and display the result.
11. Micro Project: A team of two to three students shall develop a project and submit a brief report for
a specific task assigned by the course instructor based on the concepts covered in the syllabus.
Note: Each experiment (1 to 10) will be evaluated for 30 marks (total 300), and the micro-project for 120
marks. Total marks (420) shall be scaled down to 15. Make use of the most recent version of the IDE tool for
program development.

Assessment Structure:
The assessment for each course is equally divided between Continuous Internal Evaluation (CIE) and the
Semester End Examination (SEE), with each component carrying 50% weightage (i.e., 50 marks each).
The CIE Theory component will be 25 marks and CIE Practical component will be 25 marks.

The CIE Theory component consists of IA tests for 25 marks. The CIE Practical component for continuous
assessments will be for 15 marks through rubrics and for lab tests will be for 10 marks.
● To qualify and become eligible to appear for SEE, in the CIE theory component, a student must
score at least 40% of 25 marks, i.e., 10 marks.
● To qualify and become eligible to appear for SEE, in the CIE Practical component, a student must
secure a minimum of 40% of 25 marks, i.e., 10 marks.
● To pass the SEE, a student must secure a minimum of 35% of 50 marks, i.e., 18 marks.
● A student is deemed to have successfully completed the course if the combined total of CIE and
SEE is at least 40 out of 100 marks.
CIE Practical component:
The CIE marks awarded in the case of the Practical component shall be based on the continuous evaluation of
the laboratory report using a defined set of rubrics. Each experiment report can be evaluated for 30 marks.
The summation of all the experiments marks to be scaled down to 15 marks.

s
bu
The laboratory test (duration 03 hours) at the end of the last week of the semester /after completion of all the
experiments (whichever is early) shall be conducted for 50 marks and scaled down to 10 marks. For the
lla
laboratory test, the student is required to conduct one experiment (excluding the micro project).

Continuous Internal Evaluation (CIE)

(i) Theory component

The CIE marks of 25 shall be earmarked for two tests.
The first test shall be conducted after completing two modules of the syllabus and the second
one after completing the rest three modules.
Each test shall be conducted for 25 marks. The average of the two tests scaled down to 25
marks shall constitute the test marks for a maximum of 25 marks.

s
(ii) Laboratory component bu
Out of 25 marks, 15 marks shall be assigned for assessment as per the rubrics listed in the
lla
course syllabus (30 marks scaled down to 15).
The remaining 10 marks shall be based on the practical test conducted by two Internal
Sy

examiners appointed by the HoD. The allotment of marks shall be as per the rubrics defined
for the practical test (50 marks scaled down to 10).

at least 40 % of 25 marks, i.e., 10 marks, in the CIE theory component, and at least 40 % of
25 marks, i.e., 10 marks in the CIE Practical component.

Passing requirement in SEE

For a pass in the Semester End Examination (SEE), a student shall secure a minimum of 35
marks out of 100.
For the declaration of a pass grade, the sum of the Continuous Internal Evaluation (CIE)
marks (out of 50) marks and the SEE marks scaled down to 50 shall be greater than or equal
to 40 marks.
If the total (CIE + SEE) is less than 40 marks, the student shall be awarded the grade ‘F’ (Fail).
