Letter Grade Based On Test Scores?
Nov 19, 2010
I need someone with patience and can go through a solution with me from the Clearly Visual Basic book. I'm good with computers and can usually learn things relatively fast on my own time and in my own way, but I'm going to school for computer programming and, with certain things, I learn better with things explained to me rather than reading from a book. If someone has the time to go over this solution I'm doing and explain it to me in a way I'd have a better chance of understanding, I'd be truly grateful. I need a tutor, for lack of a better word. The lab I'm doing is from the Clearly Visual Basic book and the instructions are:
Code an application that displays a letter grade based on the averages of three test scores. Code the application using a function to determine and return the letter grade. If the average is at least 90, the grade is A. If the average is at least 80 but less than 90, the grade is B. If the average is at least 70 but less than 80 the grade is C. If the average is at least 60 but less than 70, the grade is D. If the average is below 60, the grade is F.

It works up to this point but when I try to add so that 70-79 is a C, 60-69 is a D, and 60 and less is a F I run in to problems.

I have coded this not sure how to get it to display correctly to the lblGrade box. I have set it up for. Supposed to take the average of three grades and display the letter grade for the average of the three grades.
Here is the code
Public Class frmMain
Private Function CalculateGrade _
(ByVal txtTest1 As Decimal, ByVal txtTest2 As Decimal, _
ByVal txtTest3 As Decimal) As String
Dim AverageScore As Double

I made an application that calculates course grades. The program runs perfectly except for the last part
The the final grade number comes from the label "lblCoursePts" and i want to put the letter grade in the label "lblFInalGrade" Here is what i have.
'Determine the final letter grade
Select Case lblCoursePts.Text
Case 90 To 100 : lblFinalGrade.Text = "A"

How do you enter in a code for an overall letter grade from a percentage given? I have a seperate box for the letter grade and a seperate one for a the percentage grade . I have it setup when an overall grade and possible grade is entered into boxes it will give me a grade percent but not a letter grade. How is that added? I am doing this for my course project but dont undersatnd the coding very well. I am just trying to pass the class.

I have been struggling with my programming class from day one. I still can't seem to grasp the complete logic on how to write code. Anyhow, I have an assignment due that I am stuck on. Here is the assignment:
In this exercise, you code an application that displays a letter grade based on the average of three test scores. Open the Grade Solution (Grade Solution.sln) file, which is contained in the ClearlyVB Chapl8Grade Solution folder. Code the application,using a function to determine and return the letter grade. If the average is at least 90, the grade is A. If the average is at least 80 but less than 90, the grade is B.If the average is at least 70 but less than 80, the grade is C. Tf the average is at least
60 but less than 70, the grade is D. If the average is below 60, the grade is F.
You will be developing the code for the function on your own. Below the Public Class frmMain line, insert this function header:Private Function CalculateGrade(ByVal testScore1 As Decimal, ByVal testScore2 As Decimal, ByVal testscore3 As Decimal) As String
In the function, declare variables for the average score and the letter grade. Calculate the average, use IF/Elself statements to determine the letter grade, and return the letter grade. Create a subprocedure for the Click event for the btnDisplay button. It should call the CalculateGrade function with three arguments ( the three test scores from the text boxes), and display the returned value in the lblGrade box.

The exercise prior to this one had us use two parallel arrays that store a letter grade (A, B, C, D, F) and the minimum points needed for each grade. The user input the points earned by the student and the program shows their letter grade. It took a minute, but I got that one done, and it does what it's supposed to do.This exercise has us modify that exercise to ask for the (via InputBox in MainForm Load event) total points possible. The grade is then determined by percentage of the total points possible. For instance, if x is the user input, an "A" would be 90% of x.

It is meant to average 15 user-input grades and then from there I have to provide the letter grade that corresponds with the average percent. I understand how to provide the corresponding letter grade, but I don't understand how to get the average. I've tried putting it into arraylist format

"I need to create a program that will allow the user to enter in 10 test grades from a class. I need to store these grades into an array, and use a loop to add up the total. Then I'll need to output the average, and the letter grade for the average using:

80 - 89 B
70 - 79 C
60 - 69 D

That's all it needs to do. Here is some code that shows you that the only thing I know how to do is (allow the user to enter in 10 test grades from a class.) The rest I'm so lost on and have a crappy instructor. This assignment is due tomorrow, but the instructor is not available over the weekend.

I am working on an assignment for my Programming Logic and Design class. I also noticed a couple other similar posts but after going through them I still have an issue. I was suppose to write a program that will allow input of three test scores, average them then display a letter grade in a box. At this point the only thing that is being displayed is "F". [code]

I am a new user to VB and I am having difficulty with one of my assignments. The assignment states that to create an application that allows a user to enter three test scores each for three students. The application should calculate each student's average test score and assign a letter grade. The application should prompt the user for each student's name and three test scores.

I need assistance with posting lines from a text file (test scores) into an array. From there, I'll have to average the test scores, find the standard deviation (without using the built in function) and assign grades based on the test scores' deviation. I have already written the code for the user to search and upload a text file. And I should be able to do the standard deviation of the array, if someone can help give me an example of how to send the text file to array and average the lines of the array without using the built in math functions.

I'm not sure where I'm going wrong with this. it's supposed to let the user add scores to the list, then calculate the total, average, and count. However, it doesn't let me add more values to the list. Any help whatsoever would be awesome! Keep in mind, I am new to VB and programming languages, and was just playing around with code hoping for any sort of positive result, and therefore some of the code may not be necessary, or make sense. Here's what I have now:

Create a program which promps the user to enter an unlimited number of test scores. The program should show the high score and the low score. You should use a loop of your choice within this program. The program should look similar to the one below:

I have a homework assignment to code an application that allows the Prof to display a grade based on the numnber of points he enter. The grading scale is : 0-299 -F; 300-349- D; 350-399- C; 400-449- B; 450-500- A. We are to store the minimum points in a 5 element one dimensional Integer array name intPonts and store the grades in a 5 element one dimensional String array name strGrades. The arrays should be parallel arrays. The procedure should search the intPoints array for the number of points entered by the user and then display the corresponding grade from the strGrades array.
I have stored the minimum points and grades in a one dimensional integer and string array respectively. I have coded the program, and when I put in random points, it gives me the letter grade. For example, if I put in 376 it will display a "C"; if I put in 200, it will display an "F". However, if I put in anything over 449, it will NOT display an "A", it just leaves the lbl blank. I am stumped on how to get the code to read pass 449 points.
here is my code:
' Name: Carver Project
' Purpose: Displays a grade based on the number of points the user enters

I'm basically trying to do a small report card project. I only need to pull 5 Students with each student having 5 Test Scores a piece. The full Code of what I have for the submit button is below. I have actually 3 questions.
1. I always seem to have trouble with them unless I initialize them when I dim them. Is there a better way than below
2. The below code works really well for Student 1 and all 5 test scores. Rather than do that code 5 times though, what is the best way for me to basically state that IF dblStudent1(intMax) = 4 Then Change dblStudent1(intMax) to dblStudent2(intMax) etc.
3. Would this be better suited towards a multidimensional array ?
Private Sub btnEnterGrades_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnEnterGrades.Click
Dim strStudentNames() As String = {" ", " ", " ", " ", " "} ' Holds the 5 Students Names
Dim intMax As Integer = (4) ' Place Holder for Student Number

I've created a program that requires students to answer addition questions.I have the code so that it calculates if the answer is correct, along with outputing the correct answer into a textbox.If the answer is correct the textbox background colour changes to green.If the answer is inocrrect the textbox background colour changes to red.I've done this using an array, and I want to use this array to calculate how many questions the students have answered correctly, and output them onto another page.I'm not sure is something like this would work:I was thinking about giving the textbox that outputs the grade score a value of 10. For every red box that is highlighted, 1 is taken away from the texbox value, outputting the amount of questions the user has answered correctly.Here is my array so far, not including the ability to output how many answers the student has answered correctly.

Is it possible to change to colour of letters as they are typed.I.e
Piece of text says
"Hello World"
when user types "H". The "H" in the original would change if matched and then so on and then when "Hello" is matched it would change to another colour.
