Question

On Python

Preview the provided sample file called studentdata.txt. It contains one line for each student in an imaginary class. The student’s name is the first thing on each line, followed by some exam scores. The number of scores might be different for each student.

Using the text file studentdata.txt write a program that calculates the average grade for each student, and print out the student’s name along with their average grade with two decimal places.

Answer 1

# open file

file = open('studentdata.txt', "r")

# read each line

for line in file:

    line = line.split()

    # extract name

    name = line[0]

    # extract scores

    scores = [int(s) for s in line[1:]]

    # compute average score

    avg = sum(scores)/len(scores)

    # print

    print("{} has average score of {:.2f}".format(name, avg))

# close file

file.close()
