Input parameter client, date
Read subscribed products
if the product read has expired at the date received, break and
return no.
Read children,
if the child read has reached required age, break and return no.
return yes

All this is in one <function>.
No other procedure would have access to the products or children of
the client.

I would rather :
Function getProducts (client : dateNow) Function

getProducts (client :

dateThen) Function getChildren (client : dateNow) Function

getChildren

(client : dateThen)

This approach will likely perform 2 to 4 times as much I/O as
the first one.

You mean because in the 2nd, all products and all children are read? Or because of the gets with 2 dates?

How would the data for products and children
be returned?

I was imagining that the service program would retain informaton about the products or children. Another function would be able to get the list of each as an array, maybe.

Thanks.
