Create a production line

I’m creating a system where the user will be able to selected operations for a product to go through in order to be built (production line) and the product can only go through the set order nothing else! What would be the best methods to use?

So there are 10 processes that a product can go through to be produced (but not always in the same order). If the product has gone through to the first production process - how will I send it to the next production process and how will the system know what the next production process is

I just need some ideas on the different ways I could carry this out. Could any one give so advice??

What I have tried:

Are there any websites to use?

You need to provide much more detail for anyone to be able to give a sensible answer. The basic idea of a production line is quite simple, but the specifics vary widely.

Thank you.

Can you program in C# now ? Are you familiar with Stacks, Queues, and Async Tasks ? If you start writing code, we can help, but, you have to do the work.

I can do the basics - wouldn’t say I’m advanced in it. Thank you I’ll look into those things. Could you give me an example of what I’d use the things you listed for please?

Everyone here was a beginner: once :) I suggest you study, and practice coding with, those C# resources I mentioned. And, get very familiar with Classes, Inheritance, and Generics.

Make diagrams on paper to help you visualize the flow of control of your production line, and think how to map the components and events to Classes and event-handling code.

Is this homework ?

OK, with that information you can start drawing some decision tables and flowcharts. That will help you to see the overall process, and from that you can look at each step and figure out the details. Only when you have all the details, inputs and outputs clear, should you start any actual coding.
