iv) Allows the checkout of multiple products,

ITECH1400 - Assignment 1 – Supermarket Self-Service Checkout
Due Date: 5pm, Friday of Week 7
This assignment will test your skills in designing and programming applications to specification and is worth
20% of your non-invigilated (type A) marks for this course. This is an INDIVIDUAL ASSIGNMENT – and while
you may discuss it with your fellow students, you must not share designs or code or you will be in
each of
the university plagiarism rules. This assignment should take you approximately 20 hours to complete.
Assignment Overview
You are tasked with creating a text-based program for simulating a supermarket self-service checkout using
the Python 3 programming language.
The assignment is
oken up into four main
components:
1.) Design and model two classes: Product
and CheckoutRegister,
2.) Create an activity chart which describes
the behaviour of the checkout system,
3.) Create a computer program that allows
a user to interactively check out a
number of products, then provides an
opportunity to enter some virtual money to pay for the products and finally and prints out a receipt for
the user (to the screen, not on paper), and finally
4.) Explain and integrate some code into your checkout program that places the products purchased into
virtual shopping bags.
Your submission should consist of one Microsoft Word or Li
eOffice document containing the first two parts
of the assignment, and three Python scripts that implement the computer program (checkoutregister.py,
product.py and main.py).
The main.py script runs the main logic of the program and will use instances of the CheckoutRegister and
Product classes to simulate checking out of the supermarket.
You are provided with a Microsoft Word template to help you complete the first two parts of this assignment.
Towards the end of this document you will also be provided with the output of a simulated run of the completed
computer program which may help you with this assignment.

Assignment Part 1 Details – Class Design
Think of a product that you can buy from a supermarket, like maybe a can of soup or an apple.
Start by listing all the properties of that object that you can think of – try to come up with at least ten general
properties of a Product and write these down in your Assignment_Part_1_
Microsoft
Word document.
Next, use the process of abstraction to cut the number of properties back to only four ‘key’ properties – write
these down in the next section of your Word document. Take a look at the week 2 lecture slides if you need a
eminder on how to go about this.
Now, fill in the class diagram for your Product class in the Word document template provided. Your product
class does not have to have any methods (i.e. functions) associated with it to perform any actions other than a
constructor which takes and set the four key properties that you’ve identified.
Next we’ll move on to CheckoutRegister class – think about what information the checkout
