The question as text
A two-dimensional (2D) array Account[] contains account holders’ names and passwords for a banking program. A 2D array AccDetails[] has three columns containing the following details: • column one stores the balance – the amount of money in the account, for example 250.00 • column two stores the overdraft limit – the maximum total amount an account holder can borrow from the bank after the account balance reaches 0.00, for example 100.00 • column three stores the withdrawal limit – the amount of money that can be withdrawn at one tim The amount of money in a bank account can be negative (overdrawn) but not by more than the overdraft limit. For example, an account with an overdraft limit of 100.00 must have a balance that is greater than or equal to –100.00 Suitable error messages must be displayed if a withdrawal cannot take place, for example if the o The bank account ID gives the index of each account holder’s data held in the two arrays. For example, account ID 20’s details would be held in: Account[20,1] and Account[20,2] AccDetails[20,1] AccDetails[20,2] and AccDetails[20,3] The variable Size contains the number of accounts. The arrays and variable Size have already been set up and the data stored. Write a program that meets the following requirements: • checks the account ID exists and the name and password entered by the account holder m Account[] before any action can take place • displays a menu showing the four actions available for the account holder to choose from: 1. display balance 2. withdraw money 3. deposit money 4. exit • allows an action to be chosen and completed. Each action is completed by a procedure w You must use pseudocode or program code and add comments to explain how your code works. All inputs and outputs must contain suitable messages. You only need to declare any local arrays and local variables that you use. You do not need to declare and initialise the data in the global arrays Account[] and AccDetails[] and the variable Size

Show the answer and mark scheme
Read the whole answer:
Check if each requirement listed below has been met. Requirements may be met using a suitable built-in function from the programming language used (Python, VB.NET or Java)
Mark SEEN on script if requirement met, cross if no attempt seen, NE if partially met (see marked scripts).
Use the tables for A02 and A03 below to award a mark in a suitable band using a best fit approach
Then add up the total.
Marks are available for:
Data Structures required names shown underlined must be used as given in the scenario
Arrays or lists Account, AccDetails
Variable Size, AccountNumber
Requirements (techniques)
R1 Check account number and password (iteration and validation, selection, input, output)
R2 Display menu and make a selection (output, input and selection)
R3 Perform actions selected (use of arrays and procedures with parameters)

DECLARE Name, Password : STRING // local variables
Valid ← FALSE
IF AccID <0 OR AccID > Size
THEN
OUTPUT "Invalid Account Number"
ELSE

INPUT Name
OUTPUT "Please Enter Password "
INPUT Password
IF Name <> Account[AccID,1] OR Password <> Account[AccID,2]
THEN
OUTPUT "Invalid name or password"
ELSE
Valid ← True
ENDIF
ENDIF
ENDPROCEDURE
PROCEDURE Balance(AccID : INTEGER)
OUTPUT "Your balance is ", AccDetails[AccID,1]
ENDPROCEDURE
PROCEDURE WithDrawal(AccID : INTEGER)
DECLARE Amount : REAL // local variable
REPEAT
OUTPUT "Please enter amount to withdraw "
INPUT Amount
IF Amount > AccDetails[AccID,3]
THEN
OUTPUT "Amount greater than withdrawal limit"
ENDIF
IF Amount > AccDetails[AccID,2] + AccDetails[AccID,1]
THEN

ENDPROCEDURE
PROCEDURE Deposit(AccID : INTEGER)
DECLARE Amount : REAL // local variable
REPEAT
OUTPUT "Please enter a positive amount to deposit "
INPUT Amount
UNTIL Amount >0

ENDPROCEDURE
// Declarations of global variables for information – not required in candidate responses
DECLARE AccountNumber, Choice : INTEGER
DECLARE Valid, Exit : BOOLEAN
OUTPUT "Please enter your account number "
INPUT AccountNumber
CheckDetails(AccountNumber)
IF Valid
THEN
REPEAT
OUTPUT "Menu"
OUTPUT "1. display balance"
OUTPUT "2. withdraw money"
OUTPUT "3. deposit money"
OUTPUT "4. exit"
OUTPUT "please choose 1, 2, 3 or 4"

2 : Withdrawal(AccountNumber)
3 : Deposit(AccountNumber)
4 : Exit ← TRUE
OTHERWISE OUTPUT "Invalid choice"
