 Acknowledgement

I am glad to present my Computer Science project. This project was

given to us by our respected Computer Science teacher Mr Suman
Lasrado. I am really thankful to him for giving us such a wonderful
opportunity.

I also want to thank our Principal, Sr Melissa and all the staff at
Mount Carmel Central School, for providing me with the required
facilities.

I am grateful to my parents and friends who helped in finishing this

project within the given time.

 Limitations

• Limited Interactivity:
The current implementation relies on a console-based interface, limiting
the interactive and visual aspects of the user experience.

• Basic Security Measures:

The project does not implement advanced security measures, such as
user authentication and authorization, which could be essential for a
real-world application.

• Single-User Interaction:
The application is designed for a single user at a time. Implementing
features for multiple users concurrently interacting with the
marketplace could enhance the project.
