Student Database System in C

A command-line application for managing student records using a linked list and binary file operations.

Overview

This project is a simple student database management system developed using C-style procedural programming in Visual Studio. It allows users to store and manage student information through an interactive menu.

Each student record contains:

• Student ID

• Display all student records
• Search for a student by ID
• Add a new student
• Delete a student by ID
• Update a student's name or GPA
