This is a flowchart of how the program should run; a total of 4 programs will be created in order for
this procedure to work. An introduction screen will be created so that the user has a choice of
choosing his qualification.

Once he/she has done he would then Input his/her given grades. Once this step has been completed
a button will allow the user to calculate his grades. Once the user has finished he/she has a choice of
repeating the procedure or stopping all together. Below is a design of what the interface of the
program should look like.

open and save files independently so all their work
will be safe. Below is the design of what the
program should look like.
Date Time

Here is the basic design of the interface of the program.

There will be 2 tabs, one for notes and one for the internet.
The 3 buttons to the right allow the user to open their work,
save their work and exit the program. The time and the Date
will be displayed below.
