I. ANALYSIS OF THE PROBLEM AND IDENTIFICATION OF REQUIRED
ITEMS

From the question grading application, it is important to get the total number of
students for the grading process to continue, hence there should be an integer variable
that will store the total number of students for whom the application will calculate the
grades. The application should contain an integer that will contain the number of courses
that for every student.
After the application ask for the student ID and marks in the different courses the
application will calculate the average marks for every student. The program will check
the marks and condition in each course and determine grade for each of them. At the end
of the program if the stored average value become greater or equal to 40 then the program
will print “Proceed to next Semester”. Otherwise, the program will display “Fail”.

II. Algorithm in a Pseudo Code

Step 1: Start
Step 2: Read total number of students
Step 3: Read the number of courses for the semester.
Step 4: Read the student ID
Step 5: Read the marks for the different course for the student
Step 6: show grades for the courses.

If (marks >=80 and marks <=100) show Grade A.

Else if (marks >=70 and marks <=79) show Grade B.
Else if (marks >=60 and marks <=69) show Grade C.
Else if (marks >=50 and marks <=59) show Grade D.
Else if (marks >=40 and marks <=49) show Grade E.
Else (show Grade F).

Step 7: Show average marks for all the courses.

Step 8: IF average marks are less than 40 display “Failed”
Else
Print “proceed to next Semester”
Ask for Next student ID
Go to step 4;
If (reached maximum number of student)
Stop.
