    <p>I am so close with this code, I need to figure out to take more than one grade as a parameter. It takes one perfectly but my code is written so it keeps taking grades and credits until nothing is entered. but it doesn't work that way. </p> <p>My code so far:</p> <pre><code>#! /usr/bin/python3 # gpa.py # Program to take credits and grades and return calculated GPA class Student: def __init__(self, hours, qpoints, credits): self.hours = float(hours) self.qpoints = float(qpoints) def getName(self): return self.name def getHours(self): return self.hours def getQPoints(self): return self.qpoints def gpa(self): return self.qpoints/self.hours def addGrade(self, gradePoint, credits): self.hours += credits self.qpoints += credits*gradePoint def addLetterGrade(self, grade): total = 0 for i in grade(A,B,C,D,E,F): if grade == 'A': total = total + 4.0 elif grade == 'A-': total = total + 3.7 elif grade == 'B+': total = total + 3.3 elif grade == 'B': total = total + 3.0 elif grade == 'B-': total = total + 2.7 elif grade == 'C+': total = total + 2.3 elif grade == 'C': total = total + 2.0 elif grade == 'C-': total = total + 1.7 elif grade == 'D+': total = total + 1.3 elif grade == 'D': total = total + 1.0 elif grade == 'E': total = total + 0.0 elif grade == 'F': total = total + 0.0 def main(): grade = input('Enter grade for next course, or type done finish: ') credits = input('Enter number of credit hours for this course: ') error_float = 'error: expected a floating-point number' # make a new Student object students = Student('students', 0.0, 0.0) # user-feedback loop while 1: # prompt user to enter a grade grade_str = input(grade) # quit if no grade is entered if grade_str.strip() == 'done': break try: # convert input to a floating-point value grade = float(grade_str) except ValueError: # if input cannot be converted, restart feedback loop print(error_float) continue # prompt user to enter the number of credits credits_str = input(credits).strip() try: # convert input to a floating-point value credits = float(credits_str) except ValueError: # if input cannot be converted, restart feedback loop print(error_float) continue # update the student's grades students.addGrade(grade, credits) # after user has entered all grades, compute the cumulative GPA if students.getHours() == 0.0: # can't compute GPA if hours = 0 print('*** zero credit hours recorded') else: # otherwise, output cumulative GPA and finish print('*** final GPA =', students.gpa()) if __name__ == '__main__': main() </code></pre>

    3. COThis is going to be shut down for being too vague. I suggest you ask a specific question and provide a precise directive before that happens.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
