When I run the program, all my integers=0 and my char = nothing...

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

hw[h] = hw_scores[h];

should be the other way around :)

Thank you so much!


now there's only one more problem. the character grade that's supposed to be derived from the If-Else If statements isn't giving me a character....

Thank you.

first of all, you aren't calling get_total_percent(), you could call this in the get_letter_grade function and return the value it gives you. Also, your for statement is off.

Code:

---

char Student::get_letter_grade()
{
        get_total_percent();
        return letter_grade;
}

---

and the for statement needs to be:

Code:

---

for (int q=0; q<10; q++)
{
        sum = sum + hw_scores[q];
}

---

Ok, lets try again with updated code....

I'm still not getting a Char answer, or any answer for that matter for a letter grade.

Code:

you did one thing I told ya to do, the for loop. Now do the other thing.

Alrighty! I could have sworen I changed that also.

Everything works as intented now.

Thanks for the quick help! Have a great week!
