    On the contrary, I think that would be encouraged. The denizens of SciForums would be happy to help you do your homework. Asking them to do your homework would be frowned upon, though.

    CAN YOU HELP ME WITH THE CODES?

    "Mathematical Analysis Using C++
    The data file results.dat contains course scores of cs102 students. The course
    scores are stored in ascending alphabetic order by the last name. The format
    of the file is as follows:-
    Student id #, First Name, Last Name, Test 1, Project 1, Test 2, Project 2, Quiz.
    You have been asked to perform some processing on this data and gather
    some statistical measurements. You have to open the file, read in the student
    id#, First Name & Last name into a 2-D array. Have a separate 2-D array to
    read in the all of the scores (test 1, project 1, test 2, project 2 and Quiz.) [The
    first array’s row should match with the second array’s row.]
    • You have to prepare separate analysis reports for each of the
    assessments and save into 6 different output files. Each row in the
    file should be identified & sorted by student id # in ASC order.
    Label the files in accordance to its content, e.g analysisTest1,
    analysisProject1 and etc..
    • Create another file named studentGrade.dat to display the student
    id # with the total marks and corresponding grades. [each
    individual assessment is 20%] Use the table below to find your
    grade.(sort by Grade in ASC order). This file should also contain
    the tally for each grade.
    Mark Grade
    90-100 A+
    78-89 A
    70-77 B+
    60-69 B
    55-60 C+
    48-54 C
    40-47 D
    0-39 E


    • A last file named studentLIST.dat should be created to contain the
    student id#, Last Name & First Name. (sorted by student id# in
    Desc order)
    Analysis Required
    • For each of the separate assessment find the mean, median, and standard
    deviation.
    • For the final grades, find the mean, highest& lowest score, and the variance.
    Requirements
    1. Draw a flowchart to show how the above would be solved
    2. Write C++ program to implement the above flowchart. The program should
    repeat and each time should ask the user for an input filename. It should stop
    when the user presses EXIT when prompted for filename.
    3. You are allowed to use existing functions & codes from the lecture notes, text
    or the labs, but please do acknowledge these functions.
    4. The program should be able to handle any error entry from keyboard!
    5. Finally, draw a graph in MS-Excel showing the grade tally!
    Functions Needed
    • Separate functions to perform the different statistical analysis is required.
    findMean(..), findMedian(…), findSD(…), findVariance(…),
    findHighest(…), findLowest(…)
    • Have a function to read from the files and another to write to the files.
    readDetails(filename, …..)
    writeDetails(filename, …..)

    Crud. It's been too long since my C programming class. Guess it's time for me to go back to the basics.

    What's probable is that you use an alloc() function to store the memory somewhere.

    well, teh first thing to do isn't programming. It's figuring out what steps need to occur in order to begin programming.

    so, what's the list of steps that need to occur in order to get to your final goal of "statistical analysis"?
    step 1

    Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!

    pen data file.
    step 2:read data from file
    etc....

    if you get an idea of the steps, then designing the the code structure will be easier, and you'll be less likely to miss something.

    i have already done that - the problem is that i dont know the codes with which to create the two dimensional array. my compiler keeps on stating errors....

    I think you'd have much more success in getting help if you actually posted at least some of the code you have. If you continue to be vague so will the answers...

    the best i can do to help is give you a simple dynamic allocation for an array of strings, which is a 2d array cause a string is an array of characters

    in c.....

    char *string;
    string = (char *)malloc(sizeof(char) * LENGTHOFSTRING * NUMBEROFSTRINGS);

    and dont forget to delete at the end
    free(string);

    of course LENGTHOFSTRING is how many characters max in a string
    and NUMBEROFSTRINGS is how many strings you want to hold
    i think this is right...im just learning it too, why not give it a try
    im unsure if you need to #include anything special for this

    now c++

    char *string;
    string = new(nothrow) char[sizeof(char) * LENGTHOFSTRING * NUMBEROFSTRING];

    and to delete it is

    delete [] string;
    anyways, give it a shot
