How to Ask a Programming Question

Anyone can ask a question in our programming channels. Following the guide Writing The Perfect Question is recommended.

What to Post

State your problem clearly and provide all necessary details:

• the relevant portion of your code, or all of it
• the expected output
• the actual output (or the full error)
  :trophy: Gold Standard: Minimal Reproducible Example

Where to Post

Provide the relevant code in the message, and format it nicely with a code block*. If it's too much for one message, you can upload it:

• Compiler Explorer for most C/C++ snippets
• OnlineGDB for interaction, debugging
  :no_entry: Do not post screenshots, let alone photos of your screen!

* Use /code if you don't know how to format code blocks

What exactly do you need to do, and what have you done so far? What do you need help with?

i need to construct a final grade calculator

• The program must calculate a course grade based on user input
  • Example: User enters assignment names, point values, and earned scores
• Use C++ functions to organize your code
  • For example, create functions for the greeting, collecting inputs, calculating grade, etc.
• Use at least one loop (for, while, do-while)
  • For example, loop through user input to collect assignment scores
• Use proper data types for variables and constants
• Follow code style and naming conventions discussed in class:
  • camelCase for variables and functions
    • ex. calculateGrade()
  • UPPERCASE naming for constants
    • ex. const int MAX_ASSIGNMENTS = 10;
  • Descriptive, readable identifier names
• Program should:
  • Print a title
  • Print a greeting that changes based on time of day
    • Ex: "Good morning!", "Good afternoon!"
  • Prompt user to enter grading scheme (total points, letter grade cutoffs)
  • Prompt user to enter assignment name and points
  • Allow user to finish entering assignments
  • Calculate and print final grade percentage and letter grade
• The program should be intuitive and easy to understand
• Utilize good program design with proper loops, variables, etc.

these are some additional requirements

Ok, in your own words, what do you need to do? (I'm not reading a wall of text, sorry)

[timid sand]

LOL
