1. Instruction Includes guidelines for the user in using the simulator. 2. About C++ Contains information about C++ language. 3. Cout-Cin Consists of problems to be simulated with basic cout and cin structure. 4. If-Else Consists of problems to be simulated using if and if-else structure. 5. Switch Consists of problems to be simulated using switch structure. 6. Do-While Consists of problems to be simulated using do-while structure. 7. While Consists of problems to be simulated using while structure. 8. For-Loop Consists of problems to be simulated using for loop structure. 9. Array Consists of problems to be simulated using array structure. 10. Credits Contain references about the system. 11. Exit Closes the application.

If you select the Cout-Cin category the level of difficulties such as will appear. 1. Easy Contains 1 problem to be simulated in easy level. 2. Average Contains 1 problem to be simulated in average level. 3. Hard Contains 1 problem to be simulated in hard level.

If you select the easy level the problem to be simulated will appear. 1. Problem The statement of the problem. 2. Start It will scroll down the white background and proceed to coding area.

1. Comments Instruct the user of what would be coded. It must satisfy the remarks/comments in order to proceed to the next line. 2. Indicators Show if the line is done or undone. 3. Coding Area The section where the user will perform the process of coding. 4. Exit Allows the user to decide if he/she wants to abort the level.

1. Yes Button Return to the main interface. 2. No Button Return to the coding area.

1. Indicate if there is syntax error. The color of the text will become red. 2. Shows an error message.

1. Simulated Output Allows the user to test the output of the program.

1. Main Allows the user to go back to the main interface. 2. Next Allows the user to proceed to next level.

After you finished the easy level it will be disabled.

After finishing the 3 levels, the category will be disabled and will be considered as done.
