Please, submit your homework electronically using the "submit" system.
Please try to follow the "good programming" conventions
we discussed in class. Write modular code and include all
of your functions in the same CPP file as your main.
(HW_5_1.cpp/exe) In this exercise we have
to design a program that calculates our final grades in PIC10A,
in the Spring 2001, UCLA PIC. You need to write a program that reads
from an ASCII file, in that order, the scores for 7 Homeworks (HW's), a Midterm
and a Final exam. The lowest HW grade is dropped and the remaining
6 grades are averaged to obtain the average HW score, this counts
with weight 30% to the final grade. Midterm counts as 30% also, and
the Final exam is worth 40% of the final grade. You need to read in
all these scores (integers), calculate the number representation
of your final grade (e.g., 79/100) according to the above distribution
and report the mean and the standard deviation of the sequence of all
9 scores (HW's and exam grades). Suggest a letter grade based on
the obtained
numeric grade (100-90, A; 80-89, B; 70-79, C; 60-69, D; below 60, F).
You can report all results as integers, however, all calculations
should be carried out using double arithmetic. There is only one specific
design requirement you need to follow. Define a HomeworkScores
structure, containing all HW scores, and a Grades
structure containing a variable of type HomeworkScores
and two other variables for the Midterm and the Final
Exam scores. You need to instantiate all variables
to the values read from myGradesPIC10A.dat
file
and access them using the structure member access
protocol we discussed in class. [Note: the mean/standard deviation
are defined by:
SD{x1,x2, ..., xn} =
sqrt( (1/(n-1)) * ( (x1-m)2 + (x2-m)2
+ ... +(xn-m)2 ) ),
mean m=(1/n)(x1 + x2 + ...+ xn)
and sqrt is the square-root function.]
Sample Run: Suppose one student's record is as follows:
80, 70, 90, 100, 70, 80, 60, 70, 80, and these are stored in a
file myGradesPIC10A.dat
%> Enter the name of the file containing your 7 HW and 2 Exam grades:
%> myGradesPIC10A.dat
%> HW: 7, was your lowest grade homework and it is dropped
%> Your final numeric grade (based on the 30%+30%+40%
distribution) is: 78
%> Most likely you will get a C in PIC 10A in the Spring 2001
%> Your overall grade mean (using all 9 scores) is: 78
%> with approx. std error (standard deviation) of: 11
%> Good work. Bye!
(HW_5_2.cpp/exe) Write a program that reads
a line from the standard input and swaps all lower-case
characters to upper-case, and all upper-case letters
to lower-case.
Sample Run:
%> This program inverts the letter-case. Please enter
a line of text that needs to be inverted:
%> This Is a tesT linE 123.
%> Inverted text looks like: tHIS iS A TESt LINe 123.
%> Would you like to invert another line (y/n)?
%> y
%> This Is aNoThEr tesT linE.
%> Inverted text looks like: tHIS iS AnOtHeR TESt LINe.
%> Would you like to invert another line (y/n)?
%> n
%> Goodbye!
