Introduction
Are you a student learning C programming
and looking for an exciting academic project? A Periodic Table System in C is a fantastic way to apply file handling, data structures, and modular
programming while creating a real-world
educational tool.
In this blog post, we will explore how to
design, implement, and enhance a basic Periodic Table system using C,
which allows users to view elements,
search, and retrieve details dynamically from a file.
Project Overview
🔹 Project Type: Academic Project for Beginners (8-16 years)
🔹 Programming Language: C
🔹 Tools Required: Code::Blocks IDE, minGW C Compiler
🔹 Concepts Used: File Handling, Structs, Modular Programming
Core Functionalities
✅
View Periodic Table in a structured format
✅ Search elements by name, symbol, or
atomic number
✅ Retrieve detailed element properties
✅ Store and read data from elements.txt
✅ Simple text-based UI for user interaction
System Design &
Implementation
1️⃣ Setting Up the Project
To get started, follow these steps:
●
Step 1: Open Code::Blocks IDE
●
Step 2: Create a new C file (periodic_table.c)
●
Step 3: Copy & paste the provided C code
●
Step 4: Create elements.txt for data storage
●
Step 5: Compile & Run the program
2️⃣ Sample elements.txt Data
This file contains structured periodic table element data:
1,H,Hydrogen,1.008,Gas,Non-metal
2,He,Helium,4.0026,Gas,Noble Gas
3,Li,Lithium,6.94,Solid,Alkali Metal
🔹 Ensure elements.txt is in the same folder as periodic_table.c
3️⃣ Features & Code
Explanation
The project consists of multiple functional modules:
✔ File Handling: Reads data from elements.txt
✔ Menu-Driven System:
Displays interactive options
✔ Search Functionality: Finds
elements by atomic number or symbol
✔ Detailed Information View: Retrieves properties of an element
🔹 Main Code Structure:
void loadElements(Element elements[], int
*count);
void displayTable(Element elements[], int
count);
void searchElement(Element elements[], int
count);
void showElementDetails(Element elements[],
int count);
🔹 Output Example:
=========================
Periodic Table System
=========================
1. View Periodic Table
2. Search Element
3. View Element Details
4. Exit
Enter your choice: 2
Enter atomic number or symbol: O
Found: Oxygen (O) - Atomic Number: 8, Atomic
Mass: 15.999
Enhancements & Future
Improvements
💡 Want to take it to the next
level? Try these enhancements:
✔ Add
more elements to elements.txt
✔ Implement sorting by atomic mass
✔ Enhance UI with formatted colors
✔ Introduce an interactive quiz mode
Final Thoughts
A Periodic
Table System in C is a great
learning project that teaches file
handling, structured data storage, and search algorithms. Whether you're a
beginner or an educator, this project helps reinforce C programming fundamentals in a fun and practical way!
