Hi, I really need help with my c++ assignments. Thank's to everyone who can help!


Create a grading program that reads a file exam grades and computes the Average grade and the letter grade for each of 5 students. Each student has 4 exam grades. Letter grade: A => 90 > B => 80 > C => 70 > D => 60 > F

Output: StudentNumber , Exams, Average, Grade

Example Output::

The record for student number: 1
The exam grades are: 70 80 90 95
The numeric average is: 83.75
and the letter grade assigned is B

Use the class definition given. Code the class.

class StudentRecord
{
public:
void input( ifstream& input,int studentid);
// reads exam scores for this student
void computeGrade();
//calculates the numeric average and letter grade.
void output();
//outputs the student record.
private:
int studentNumber;
double exam1;
double exam2;
double exam3;
double exam4;
double average;
char grade;
};

Use the following test data to test your program:
File name ( contains 4 grades for each of 5 students
ExamGrades.txt 70 80 90 95 95 85 90 80 75 85 70 80 55 85 50 70 45 50 40 35

#include <iostream>
#include <fstream> // I/O
#include <iomanip> // For setw()
using namespace std;

ofstream     outputfile("output.txt");     // Output file

const int    MAX_FILE_NAME = 35;            // Max space allocated for file name
const int CLASS_SIZE = 5;

class StudentRecord
{
public:
void input( ifstream& input,int studentid);
// reads exam scores for this student
void computeGrade();
//calculates the numeric average and letter grade.
void output();
//outputs the student record.
private:
  int studentNumber;
  double exam1;
  double exam2;
  double exam3;
  double exam4;
  double average;
  char grade;
};

The error lines don't match up with the code lines you posted. Lines 115 to 130 -- This is code in the middle of nowhere. Is this supposed to be a function? Ditto lines 132 to 147. Perhaps there are some bracket mismatches?

on line 115 and line 132. I presume you are trying to create a function but you don't define it correctly. If the function takes no arguments you should put ( void ) behind it, and not just a ; (or like you did in output() on line 149 ).
