Edit text (insert, delete, replace, copy, paste, etc.) using a text editor

Follow instructions in the form of specifications
Understand the practical implications of fixed-width fonts and characters with descenders.
Learn list concepts if insert and delete through line changes.

Write a C program to do the following.

Create a C program that uses output statements to output your name in big characters.

Here are detailed requirements. In computer terms, these are the system specifications. In software engineering terms, these are the functional requirements.

Enclose your name with a box of dots using the period character "." as shown in the example above. The beginning dot for each line should start in the leftmost output column.
Use lowercase and uppercase letters in the manner used in the example. Letters should have a two character thickness. For example, each large character should be made up of similar smaller characters. So, large uppercase characters should consist of smaller uppercase characters and large lowercase characters should consist of smaller lowercase letters. In the example, even the large dot character is made up of smaller dot characters.
Use as many characters in your first and last name as can reasonably fit in an 80 column wide screen.
All of your output should fit on no more than 24 lines.
Do not use any tab characters (in the text literals)

Additional requirements:

Do NOT use the tab character within string/text literals. The tab character is interpreted differently on different systems.
Insure that your text editor is set to use a fixed-width font - where all characters have the same width.
Note that some characters, such as "y", have descenders. To maintain a consistent line height, some lines that appear to have extra height just have no characters with descenders on that line.

If the requirements are unclear in any way, use any provided input and output to resolve the discrepancy.

See Guidelines for C programs .

The following coding examples and/or notes may be of use for this requirement.

Tabs and spaces (added 2020-02-01 but mentioned in class to those students who encountered this issue and brought it to my attention)

Make all necessary assumptions. Make no unnecessary assumptions.

In addition to specific coding examples, you should be familiar with all concepts covered to this point in the course. For example, the text for "Dr. Robin Snyder" might be as follows.

Here is the C code.

#include <stdio.h>

int main() {
	printf("..................................................\n");
	printf(".                                                .\n");

	printf(".   CCCC   SSSS     11     00000    11      !!   .\n");
	printf(".  CC  CC SS  SS   111    00   00  111     !!!!  .\n");
	printf(". CC      SSS       11    00  000   11     !!!!  .\n");
	printf(". CC       SSS      11    00 0000   11      !!   .\n");
	printf(". CC         SSS    11    0000 00   11      !!   .\n");
	printf(".  CC  CC SS  SS    11    000  00   11           .\n");
	printf(".   CCCC   SSSS   111111   00000  111111    !!   .\n");
	printf(".                                                .\n");
	printf(".                                                .\n");
	printf("..................................................\n");
	return 0;
	}

Here is the output of the C code.

End solution

Pseudo-code is a "false" code. It is not really code, but a simplified English explanation that is somewhat similar to code. Pseudo-code is useful for understanding what a program does. For this work, the following can be used as the pseudo-code. Adjust if needed.

Output name in big letters.

Note: Only some essential details are included. Some details, such as input, prompts, input echo, and obviously needed output are omitted.

The best way to copy-paste pseudo-code that includes indented code (e.g., with tabs) is as follows (in the code file) using a multi-line comment.
