Computer Science - Intro to C++ Problem
You be prompting a student for grades and credits for courses taken. From that, you will calculate a GPA.
This site: https://www.back2college.com/gpa.htm shows you how to calculate a GPA.
Keep prompting the student if they want to add more courses.
IMPORTANT NOTES!
- The course name is prompted for, but nothing is done with it.
- We are just using the grades A, B, C, D, and F so you won't have to do so much typing!
- You will need to use the "set precision" command Set it to "fixed" and "2".
- You will need to use the "cin.ignore()" function as discussed earlier in the course.
This is what I have thus far:
#include
#include
using namespace std;
string course;
int credits;
string grade;
string answer;
int main() {
cout << "Enter a course name: ";
getline(cin,course);
cout << course;
cout << endl;
cout << "Enter number of credits: ";
cin >> credits;
cout << credits;
cout << endl;
cout << "Enter you grade (A, B, C, D, F): ";
cin >> grade;
cout << grade;
cout << endl;
cout << "Continue ('Yes' or 'No')? ";
cin >> answer;
cout << answer;
cout << endl;
return 0;
}
Do I need a while loop to ask questions, and I am assuming a:
if(grade == "A"){
gradePoint = credit * 4;
}
What about the "set precision" to a fixed 2 value and "cin.ignore()" in the program?
