Hi, I am learning Java, and working on a program that reads the grades of homework, midterm1, midterm2, and final, and calculates the overall average and final letter grade. Assume that the maximum point of the homework is 150, and those of midterm1, midterm2 and final are 100. The overall average is to be calculated as follows:
homework: 40%
midterm1: 15%
midterm2: 20%
final: 25%
And am suppose to use a function that calculates the overall average, and another function that calculates the final grade. You are also to use an
extended if or a switch statement in the program.
I have this so far;
[HTML]vr hw,mt1,mt2,fin, avg;
hw= parseFloat(prom pt("Enter Homework Grade."));
mt1= parseFloat(prom pt("Enter Midterm 1 Grade."));
mt2= parseFloat(prom pt("Enter Midterm 2 Grade."));
fin= parseFloat(prom pt("Enter Final Grade."));
if(hw>150)
document.write( "Homework points are to large.<BR>");
if(hw<0)
document.write( "Homework points are to small.<BR>");
if(mt1>100)
document.write( "Midterm 1 points are to large.<BR>");
if(mt1<0)
document.write( "Midterm 1 points are to small.<BR>");
if(mt2>100)
document.write( "Midterm 2 points are to large.<BR>");
if(mt2<0)
document.write( "Midterm 2 points are to small.<BR>");
if (fin>100)
document.write( "Final points are to large.<BR>");
if (fin<0)
document.write( "Final points are to small.<BR>");
hw=.40*150;
mt1=.15*100;
mt2=.20*100;
fin=.25*100;
avg=(hw+mt1+mt2 +fin);
var grade;
if (avg<=50)
document.write( "Grade is an F.");
else if(avg<=60)
document.write( "Grade is an D.");
else if(avg<=70)
document.write( "Grade is an C.");
else if(avg<=80)
document.write( "Grade is an B.");
else if (avg<=90)
document.write( "Grade is an A.");

What am I not doing correctly?
1) posting in the wrong section;
2) mistaking Java for Javascript.
I'll move your question to the Javascript forum section; see the blue menu bar
near the top of this page: select 'Forums' and 'Javascript/Ajax'.
kind regards,
Jos

Thanks, I hope with my question in the correct area now, I will get the help I need to finish my assignment!

Heya, Senso. Welcome to TSDN!
In these lines: -
hw=.40*150;
-
mt1=.15*100;
-
mt2=.20*100;
-
fin=.25*100;
-
Did you mean to use *= instead of = ?

Now, I am really lost. This program needs to be set up to calculated weighted averages of hw, mt1, mt2 and fin. So far, all I can get it to do is allow me to enter the points for hw, mt1, mt2 and final in browser. I am guessing once these total are entered the percentages need to be used and a grade will be calculated based on avg???? It needs to print grade. which it is not doing?

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
