Skill Assessment System using C – Summary

A Skill Assessment System is an application that evaluates the skills of individuals based on predefined tests or quizzes. This system, developed using the C programming language, allows users (students, job candidates, or employees) to take skill assessments in various areas, such as programming, logical reasoning, mathematics, etc. The system generates scores and provides feedback based on the user’s performance.

Key Features:

User Registration and Login: Users can register for the assessment system and log in with secure credentials.

Skill Categories: Users can select from various categories or skill areas to assess their knowledge (e.g., programming, math, logic).

Multiple Types of Questions: Supports different types of questions, such as multiple choice, true/false, or short answer questions.

Timer: A timer can be set for each test to limit the time available to answer the questions.

Scoring System: After completing the assessment, users receive a score based on the number of correct answers, and a performance evaluation is provided.

Results and Feedback: After the assessment, users can view their results with detailed feedback on their performance.

Admin Panel: Admins can manage users, questions, and assessments. Admins can add, update, or remove questions from the database.

Data Storage: Results, user information, and test data are stored in files (e.g., text files or binary files), as C does not have built-in database support.

Technologies Used:

Frontend: Basic text-based User Interface (UI) implemented in C (using functions like printf(), scanf(), and getchar())

Backend: C (for all the logic, including user management, question generation, scoring system, and result calculation)

Data Storage: File handling in C (e.g., storing questions and results in text or binary files)

Security: Basic password protection using file-based authentication or simple encryption techniques.

Additional Features (optional):

Progress Tracking: Users can track their performance over time by saving their results and comparing them with past assessments.

Customizable Assessments: Admins can create skill assessments tailored to specific subjects or difficulty levels.

Random Question Selection: The system can randomly select questions from a larger pool to provide variability in assessments.

This system is useful for employers assessing candidates, educational institutions testing student progress, or anyone wanting to evaluate their skill levels in different domains
