8. Grade Book
A teacher has five students who have taken four tests. The teacher uses the following grading
scale to assign a letter grade to a student, based on the average of his or her four test scores:
Test Score
Letter Grade
90–100
A
80-89
B
70-79
C
60-69
D
0-59
Write a class that uses a String array or an ArrayList object to hold the five students' names,
an array of five characters to hold the five students' letter grades, and five arrays of four
doubles each to hold each student's set of test scores. The class should have methods that
return a specific student's name, the average test score, and a letter grade based on the average.
Demonstrate the class in a program that allows the user to enter each student's name and his
or her four test scores. It should then display each student's average test score and letter grade.
Input Validation: Do not accept test scores less than zero or greater than 100.
Date Printer Write a program that reads a char array from the user containinga date in the form mm/dd/yyyy. It should print the date in the form March 12, 2014.
1994 Weekly Gas GraphIn the student sample programs for this book, you will find a text file named 1994_Weekly_Gas_Averages.txt. The file contains the average gas price for each week in the year 1994.(There are 52 lines in the file.) Using matplotlib, write a Python program that reads thecontents of the file then plots the data as either a line graph or a bar chart. Be sure to displaymeaningful labels along the X and Y axes, as well as the tick marks.

One simple method is to associate level elements with certain symbols, and then storing them in a 2D grid inside a text file. We will use our knowledge of 2D arrays to create a very simple Level Map Creator tool. The program should prompt the user to enter a width and height for the level. Then it should initialize a 2D array and fill every element with the "*" symbol. Afterwards, the user should be given the following options via a menu: 1.

The program asks the user to enter a number N between 100, and then: initializes the first N elements of the array to random numbers between 1 and 100. calculates the average of these numbers and displays it. A final loop displays the elements of the array, each on a line, with an indication as to whether that number is lower or higher than the average. For example, if the numbers generated are 5, 28, 3, 8, 15, 7, 22, 6, 1, 4, then the program will print: Average = 9.9 5 28 3 8 15 7 22 6 1 4 11 11 11 -- 11 11 1- —— 11 lower than average higher than average lower than average lower than average higher than average lower than average higher than average lower than average lower than average lower than averagearrow_forwardDescription Create an application that maintains an array of your home inventory and displays the contents of the array in a list box.

- Lotto Program C++Write a program that simulates the Powerball lottery. In Powerball, a ticket is comprised of 5 numbers between 1 and 69 that must be unique, and a Powerball number between 1 and 26. The Powerball does not have to be unique. Hint: You can use an array to represent the 5 unique numbers between 1 and 69, and an integer variable to represent the powerball. The program asks the player if they'd like to select numbers or do a 'quickpick', where the numbers are randomly generated for them. If they opt to select numbers, prompt them to type the numbers in and validate that they are unique (except the powerball), and in the correct range. The program then generates a 'drawing' of 5 unique numbers and a Powerball, and checks it against the user's lotto ticket. It assigns winnings accordingly. Because it is so rare to win the lottery, I suggest hard coding or printing values to when testing the part of the program that assigns winnings.arrow_forwardFind primes This program creates and displays a 5x10 matrix(5 rows and 10 columns) of random integers between 1 and a maximum value(user input). Hint: Use the random library to generate each number and place it into your 2D list. The program then counts the number of prime numbers in each row of the array and displays this number, along with the found primes. The program finally displays the total number of prime numbers in the matrix.arrow_forwardAn array definition reserves space for the array. true or falsearrow_forward

In the last assignment, we calculated the frequency of a coin flip. This required us to have two separate variables, which we used to record the number of heads and tails. Now that we know about arrays, we can track the frequency of all numbers in a randomly generated sequence. For this program, you will ask the user to provide a range of values (from 1 to that number, inclusive) and how long of a number sequence you want to generate using that number range. You will then generate and save the sequence in an array. After that, you will count the number of times each number occurs in the sequence, and print the frequency of each number. Hints: You can use multiple arrays for this assignment. One array should hold the number sequence, and another could keep track of the frequencies of each number.
