Task Management System

Project Overview

The Task Management System is a console-based C program designed to manage tasks through a menu-driven interface. It supports the following functionalities:

• Add tasks with due dates
• Edit existing tasks
• Mark tasks as completed
• Delete tasks
• View tasks (remaining, completed, or both)
• Sort tasks by various criteria
• Export tasks to CSV
• Clear all tasks
• Exit the program

Features

• Linked List Data Structure: Tasks are stored in a linked list for flexible management.
• Dynamic Task Management: Users can add, edit, delete, and mark tasks as done.
• Sorting and Exporting: Sort tasks by different criteria and export them to CSV.

Setup Instructions

Prerequisites:

• C Compiler (e.g., GCC, MinGW)
• Visual Studio Code or similar IDE (optional)

Clone or Download the Project:

• Clone the repository using git clone <repository-url>, or download the ZIP file from the repository and extract it.

Compile the C Code:

• If you're using GCC or MinGW, open a terminal in the project folder and run:

  gcc -o Task_Manager Task_Manager.c
  

  This command compiles the C code and creates an executable named Task_Manager.

Run the Compiled Program:

• Once compiled, you can run the program with:

  ./Task_Manager
  

Usage Instructions

Launch the Program:

• Open a terminal and navigate to the project folder.
• Run ./Task_Manager to start the program.

Use the Menu:

• Follow the on-screen prompts to interact with the program.
• Select an option from the menu to perform various tasks.

Example Interaction

Here's an example of typical usage:

• Add Tasks: Choose option 1, then enter task details, including name and due date.
• Mark a Task as Done: Choose option 3, then enter the task's serial number to mark it as completed.
• Delete a Task: Choose option 4, then enter the task's serial number to delete it.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter errors or issues, check the following:

• Compiler Warnings: Ensure that all compiler warnings are addressed. Correct implicit declarations and escape sequence errors.
• Memory Management: Verify that memory is properly allocated and deallocated to avoid memory leaks.
