Question

Create a funtion makeStudent(studentlist) where studentlist is your list of Student namedtuples The function should do the following: Take user input for each of the fields of the namedtuple Create a Student namedtuple using the input Add the Student to studentlist

Answer 1

Answer:

def makeStudent(student_list):

   name = input()

   major = input()

   year = int(input())

   hhh = int(input())

   gpa = float(input())

   newstu = Student(name,major,year,hhh,gpa)

   student_list.append(newstu)

def setGPA(student,val):

   student = student._replace(gpa= val)

   return student

def setMajor(student,val):

   student = student._replace(major = val)

   return student

def setYear(student,val):

   student = student._replace(year = val)

   return student

def averageGPA(student_list):

   sum = 0

   for i in range(len(student_list)):

       sum = sum + student_list[i].gpa

   avg = sum/len(student_list)

   return avg

def getTopStudentGPA(student_list):

   max = -1000

   for i in range(len(student_list)):

       if student_list[i].gpa > max:

           max = student_list[i].gpa

   return max

Student = namedtuple('Student', ['name', 'major', 'year', 'id', 'gpa'])

stu1 = Student('Kenneth', 'Computer Science', 6, 987654321, 3.8)

stu2 = Student('Maegan', 'Neuroscience', 4, 123456789, 3.4)

namedlist = []

print (namedlist)

namedlist.append(stu1)

namedlist.append(stu2)

print(namedlist)

makeStudent(namedlist)

makeStudent(namedlist)

makeStudent(namedlist)

print(namedlist)

print(namedlist[1])

print(namedlist[3])

Explanation:

• Create a function to take in in the information of a new student.
• Create functions for setting GPA, a major subject and year.
• Calculate average GPA by dividing the total GPA of student with the length of student list.
• Get top student by checking the student having a maximum GPA .
