Question

Note: This question was posted a year ago, but in Python 3.4.3 there is a syntax error and it will not run it. It has to be written in Python and I appreciate any help.

In this assignment, we will develop an algorithm to calculate the final grade for a class of 25 students. There are 10 assignments (20 points each) as well a midterm and a final (100 points each). Another 20 points are for in-class participation.

All the assignments and tests contribute to the final grade equally. Additionally, the in-class participation (either thru Discussions or in real-time) is also a part of the final grade.

Next, we code the algorithm in Python along with comments and documentation, and make sure it runs successfully. For the code, we define a MAIN program (or driver) as well as a few functions and methods (e.g. get_grades, cumulate_total_points, determine_final_grade, ....) These should be invoked by the driver via function calls and with arguments passed back and forth.

In the end we display all the students net-ID and their final grade in a table format.

Since this is an interactive program, make sure we display meaningful headings and instructions/prompts to the end-user.

Please let me know if you have further questions.
