INSTRUCTIONS:

1. read a text file containing student information and their grade for the current semester

2. and check whether they are failing all courses (3 total).

==== structs ====

1. You are to declare 3 structures called

a) Name

b) Grades

c) StudentInfo

2. The structure Name contains two char arrays containing a students

a) first and

b) last name.

3. The structure Grades contains 3 chars that hold the grades for three classes the student is taking:

a) math

b) science

c) English

4. The last structure StudentInfo contains 3 datatypes:

a) an int for student ID

b) a Name

c) and Grades.

5. The structure StudentInfo will hold all the information needed for the student.

6. In main, youre to create an array of the structure StudentInfo that can hold as many students as there are in the file StudentInfo.txt.

6a. Youll open the file in main (be sure to check if it is opened!)

7. and call the function ReadFile to read the contents of the file and store them appropriately in the structure array before returning to main.

8. Once the student info is read and stored, main will call the function IsFailing and check which students are failing all the classes.

9. Mains job is to simply open the file, call the ReadFile and IsFailing functions.

// ==== ReadFile ==============================================================

// Note: this function returns nothing.

// ============================================================================

1. ReadFile will take as argument

a) the file to read

b) the StudentInfo structure array

c) and the number of students.

2. It will store all the information from the text file into the structure.

// ==== IsFailing =============================================================

// Note: this function returns nothing.

// ============================================================================

1. IsFailing will take as argument

a) the StudentInfo structure array

b) and the number of students.

2. It will check each student who is failing all three courses.

3. --IF--- a student is failing all three courses

a) it will call DispName to display the name of the student who is failing.

4. -- IF -- there are no students who are failing

a) then a message will be printed to the output screen that no students are currently failing.

// ==== DispName ==============================================================

1. will take as argument a StudentInfo structure and display the first and last name to the output screen.

Given this file StudentInfo.txt:

== test runs ==

A sample run is as follows:

The following student(s) are failing:

Sina Schram

Wesley Fontanez

Syreeta Silverstein

Another sample run is as follows:

The following student(s) are failing:

No students are failing!

Here is my code, it displays ASCII values when I am just trying to display text from the file so i havent begun IsFailing function:

#include

using namespace std;

exit(1);

}

cout << "reading the file..." << endl;

ReadFile(inFile, students, CLASS_SIZE);

// Close StudentInfo.txt

DispName(students, CLASS_SIZE);

return 0;

}

// ==== ReadFile ==============================================================

void ReadFile(ifstream& inFile, StudentInfo students[], const int CLASS_SIZE)

{

// read inFile into StudentInfo struct -

{

>> students[index].studentName.lastName

>> students[index].studentId

>> students[index].studentGrade.mathGrade

>> students[index].studentGrade.sciGrade

>> students[index].studentGrade.englGrade;

}

} // end of "ReadFile"

// ==== IsFailing =============================================================

// StudentInfo IsFailing([], const int CLASS_SIZE)

// {

// } // end of "IsFailing"

// ==== DispName ==============================================================

void DispName(StudentInfo students[], const int CLASS_SIZE)

{

int index;

// read inFile into StudentInfo struct -

for (index = 0; index < CLASS_SIZE; ++index)

{

cout << students[index].studentName.firstName << " "

<< students[index].studentName.lastName << " "

<< students[index].studentId << " "

<< students[index].studentGrade.mathGrade << " "

<< students[index].studentGrade.sciGrade << " "

<< students[index].studentGrade.englGrade << " "

<< " ";

}

} // end of "DispName"

update/edit:

updated this

struct StudentInfo

{

//

Name studentName[128];

int studentId;

Grades studentGrade[256];

};

and now receive an error telling me to include size type... i think i could be in the right direction but not sure how to use int for the ID this way.
