C++ :: Writing A Program To Calculate Grades
Apr 22, 2014
Writing a program to calculate grades... My algorithm is long, so I only posted the part that gives me trouble. When classes== 1,2,4, or 5, the program runs fine. but it terminates when classes == 3.
if (classes==3) {
do {
cout<<"Enter the Letter grade for 1st class. (USE CAPS)"<<endl;
cin>>grade1;

One of my class assignments is to create a program that receive a .txt file containing a students name and their grades as follows:
John K. 99, 87, 57, 89, 90, 95
Amanda B. Jones 100, 88, 76, 99, 86, 92
etc..
The number of students is unknown until run time. You have to take those grades and average them weighing the first (4) at 10% a piece and the last (2) at 30% each.
Then return an output file with the students name and their letter grade A,B,C,D,F based on their computed score. In addition, on screen it needs to display the average scores for each Q1, Q2, etc. as well as the minimum and maximum for each test on the screen. I am having a hard time in assigning the scores to a variable so that they can then be computed as an average and then used to determine a letter grade. I have begun to write the code and am a bit stuck..here's what I have so far:
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <math.h>

I am having some trouble with my class assignment. We need to write a C program that will calculate the employee salary. There are 5 employees that will need to be calculated. We are required to use a loop also.
So far this is what I have but I am receiving errors when running the program.
#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
int clock_num; /* employee clock number */
float gross; /* gross pay for week (wage * hours) */
float hours; /* number of hours worked per week */
float wage; /* hourly wage */
/* Prompt for input values from the screen */
printf ("This is a program to calculate gross pay.

The problem I'm having now is how to go about passing the grades to the function computeGrade and then compute the average and return that to the function.

I need to write a program that prompts the user for 10 grades and then find the average. I have that part but I need to average to not include -1. How can I tell the program to not calculate -1 into the average.
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main() {
//Declare variables
float grade[10]; // 10 array slots
int count;
float total = 0;
double average;

An instructor needs you to write a program that will compute the final average grades in her class. There are 5 students in the class. Each student must take 2 exams and 4 quizzes as part of their final grade. The weight of each toward the final grade is as follows:
Exam 1 – 30%
Exam 2 – 30% Quiz 1 – 10%
Quiz 2 – 10%
Quiz 3 – 10%
Quiz 4 – 10%
You must use arrays to store each students 3 digit ID number, exam scores and quiz scores. A multi-dimensional array is mandatory. Request from the user the information needed then output all of the information as well as the final average grade for each student.

Write a program that asks the user to enter a student’s grades on four exams. The program should display the four grades and the average of the four grades,rounded to the nearest tenth. To add the grades, use a variable called total_grade, which you should initialize to zero.As the program prompts for and obtains each grade, add the grade to total_grade using the += operator.

You are to write a C program that grades a true-false quiz. The quiz data will be available in a text file; here is an example:
Quiz #8 (09/22/14) (corrected version)
TTFTTFTFTF
0080 TTFTTFTFTF
0340 TTFTFFTFTF
The first line in the data file is a comment that you may assume can be up to 80 charac- ters long; it cannot be blank. The second line contains the answer key for the 10-question true-false quiz. The following lines in the data file contain a student's id number in column 1 followed by their answers for the quiz in column 2. A 0 (zero) on a line by itself indicates that there are no more students to process.
Write a program that first reads in (from standard input; more on this in a moment) the comment line and answer key as strings followed by each student's data. Store the student's id numbers in an array. You are to "grade" each student's quiz using the key provided fol- lowed by recording their scores (in a second array) in order to be able to print them out later. You do not need to use an array of strings or characters in your program. Write your program allowing for up to 100 students, and you may assume that at least 1 student will have taken the quiz.
You should create test data text files and provide the data to your program using redirection from the command line (see the sample run below). Your program should output the number of students who took the quiz, the average score, the best score, and a table showing each student's id, score, and grade. The formatting, spacing, and labels in your output should 1 match the sample run below exactly.
Your program should determine each student's grade as follows: if the score is equal to the best score b or b−1, give an A. If it is b−2, award a B. Give C's for any score that is equal to b−3 or b−4, a D for b−5 and an F for all others.
Alright So I'm just stuck at comparing the key answer with student answer here is my code comparing one student's answer with the answer key . is that right ?? One more thing for some reason when i try to print answer[0] the result is nothing why is that
Code:
#include<stdio.h>
int main(void) {
char comment[80];
char answer [10];
char studentans [10];
int n=0,i=0,x=0;
int ID[10];

We have to write a program that reads an input file containing data in the form:
Martha J, 80, 90, 90, 100, 89, 99, 85
Anna Smith, 65, 72, 77, 68, 62, 70, 65
Bill Gates, 60, 54, 89, 62, 65, 60, 50
...etc...
and then use that information to determine their letter grade and write that information to a .txt file. I have been able to successfully pass that information to a function to determine their letter grade and have been able to successfully compute their letter grade. However, I can get this information to successfully post within the *computeGrade () function. Yet, I don't know how to pass this information back to the main() on a student by student basis so that I can open a new .txt file and write just their name and letter grade to it.
Another issue I'm having is when it comes to computing the averages of the class. Each score is either a quiz (there are 4), a midterm (there are 2) or a final (there is 1). I'm a little stuck on how to pass say all of the quiz 1 grades as one entity to the function averagesminmax(). Is there a way to compile each of the grades for a specific quiz or midterm as one array and pass that to the function to then do the computation. Also we need the min and max so again from compiling the grades of a particular quiz or exam together as one.
Here's the code that I have so far.
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <math.h>
const char *computeGrade();
int averagesminmax();
int main() {
char fName[20];
char lName[20];
[code]....
Do I need to re-read the input file and assign them to different variables?
Here's a sample of the output so far:
Enter input .txt file name
Graded
Thui Bhu, 91, A
Ariana B. Smith, 96, A
Emily Gonzales, 83, B
Jennifer L, 89, B
Maria Jones, 67, D
Bill Gates, 55, F
Escobar Morris, 78, C
Anne Latner, 88, B
Program ended with exit code: 0
Also in my output file, the only thing that it prints will be the first name of whatever the last student in the input file list is.

I'm currently finishing writing some small application. I want to be able to log important information about the program execution to a logfile, and I have several questions.
First of all - I'd prefer to make the part that logs information to a file separate from the code I've already written. So, what interface should I expose to the rest of the program? Is one function void log(const char*); enough?
Another thing that came to my mind; my program runs two threads, and I want to be able to write to the log file from both threads, so the question is: Should I make sure that the writing to the file is mutually exclusive?
And if so, whose responsibility is it to make the logging to the file thread-safe? The actual part that does the logging (void log(const char*) for that matter), or the parts of the program that calls log(const char*) ?
And lastly, and probably less importantly, where is it customary to save the logfile? (the user's home folder maybe?)

Ive been writing this code all day and these errors have been killing.
Instructions:
Car Class:
Write a class named Car that has the following:
year. An int that holds the cars model year.
make. A string object that holds the make of car.
speed. An int that holds the cars current speed.
In addition, the class should have the following member functions.
Constructor. The constructor should accept the car's year and make as arguments and assign these values to a object's year and make member variables. The constructor should initialize the speed member variable to 0.
Accessors. Appropriate accessor functions should be created to allow values to be retrieved from an object's year, make, and speed member variables.
accelerate. the accelerate function should add 5 to the speed member variable each time it is called.
brake. The brake function should subtract 5 from the speed member variable each time it is called.
Demonstrate the class in a program that creates a Car object, and then calls accelerate function five times. After each call to the accelerate function, get the current speed of the car and display it. The, call the brake function five times. After each call to the brake function, get the current speed of the car and display it.
Errors: error C2061: syntax error : identifier 'stringm'
error C2533: 'Car::{ctor}' : constructors not allowed a return type
error C2511: 'Car::Car(int)' : overloaded member function not found in 'Car'

basic code for writing output of a program to a file? I can't seem to find it online and I need it to complete a project.

I have been asked to write a program to grade several multiple-choice exams. The exam has less than 80 questions, each answered with a letter in the range of ‘a’ through ‘f’. The data are stored on several files such as exam1.dat where the first line is the key, consisting of a string of n characters (0<n < 80). The remaining lines on the file are exam answers, and consist of a student ID number, a space, and a string of n characters.
The program should have a while loop in the main routine to ask users input a data file name through keyboard. In this way, the program has a capability of repeatedly asking for a new data file in each while loop until users input a key word “exit”. Once “exit” is encountered, the while loop terminates and your program ends. A typical input exam data file (exam1.dat) looks like:
abcdefabcdefabcdefab
1234567 abcdefabcdefabcdefab
9876543 abddefbbbdefcbcdefac
5554446 abcdefabcdefabcdef
4445556 abcdefabcdefabcdefabcd
Apply strlen( ) or the length( ) of string to the first line of the above data file for determining the number of questions in the problem. If a student gives more answers than necessary, the extra answers will be automatically truncated. On the other hand, if a student provides less number of answers, the remaining unanswered questions are considered as being answered wrongly.
After users input an exam data file, your program should ask users to input another grade-curving file name (e.g., gradeCurving.dat). This second file contains the information to convert a percentile score to a curved grade in levels of ‘A’ through ‘E’. For instance, a grade-curving file takes the following format: a curved alphabetic grade, a space, a percentile grade served as marker.
A 90
B 80
C 70
D 60
E 50
The above information means that ‘A’ = 90 through 100; ‘B’=80 through 89; ‘C’=70 through 79; ‘D’ = 60 through 69; “E”=50 through 59; For the remaining grades, you can assign an ‘F’.
Furthermore, in each while loop in the main routine, your program should ask users to input an output file name such as score1.dat. The output file will store the scores for each student in a format: student ID number, a space, a percentile score, and a curved grade in ‘A’ though ‘E’. The program should also compute and display the following statistics for the graded answers: Average score, Maximum score, and Minimum score.
A typical output on a data file looks like:
1234567 90% A
9876543 85% B
5554446 95% A
4445556 75% C
5551112 80% B
Statistics:
Average Score: 85%
Minimum Score: 95%
Maximum Score: 75%
This Is what I have so far. It compiles fine and everything but when I input the files it says "There was an error opening the corresponding files. Check input name perhaps?" and it exits out ....
#include "stdafx.h"
#include <iostream>
#include <string>

I'm writing a program that finds the probability of moves a Knight can make on a chess board. The program asks the user to enter the row and the column and the program is supposed to output how many possible moves the Knight can make, but the output is wrong. Example(if I enter row 1 and column 1 the output is 8 and it should be 2) I know the problem is with my if statements.

this is the code i have so far. i know some brackets are missing but i just pasted the meat of the code. when i run the program i keep getting the number 1 displayed in a straight line going on forever
int multiply1 = 1;
int multiply2 = 1;
while(num1<=3)
{ // num1*num2;
//num1 = 0;
while(num2<=3)
{ Console.WriteLine(multiply1*multiply2);

write a program that computes the factorial of a number and displays it. A factorial of a number (written N!) is defined as N * (N-1) * (N-2) * (N-3) ... *1 In other words, 5! = 5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1 = 120 and 3! = 3 * 2 * 1 + 6.
Example of output 15 is 1.30767e+012
Can't get it to display error when user enters a number lower than 2 or higher 60.

I am writing a porgram which includes encoding and decoding a message.Now I am doing the encoding part.
The goal is to encode a message using similar approach as Caesar Cipher. But instead of alphabets, I am going to use the entire ASCII code of total 128 codes to be the base.
And it is not a simple shifting, it is a rotation. This means if you want to shift 4 units from char <DEL>, it will come back to the first code in ASCII Code which is at dec 0 char <NUL> and starts the shifting again. It won't jump if the limit of ASCII Code is reached.
Here we've got 7 different malls' names and I am going to encode them with a shift n. I think n is free to set, so here I just set it as 5. This is also called the key.
I have written something and I think it should work, but after all it doesn't. And I don't get what is wrong.
Here is my program:
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
const int NUMBER_OF_MALLS = 7;
const int MALL_NAME_LENGTH = 13;
const int NAME_SIZE = MALL_NAME_LENGTH + 1;
void encode(int key, char plain[], int length, char encoded[]) {
for (int i = 0; i < MALL_NAME_LENGTH; i++)
[code].....
Note that I am not going to use other libraries, just <iostream>.
