    • Add
    • Remove
    • Edit
    • Print all
    • Search for one
    • Calculations of some sort

• Deadline: Wednesday (3/28/12)
• You will need to print out all your documentation and code. Include the following in your deliverable:

  • Code (which is also commented)

Friday (3/16/12)

Agenda:

• Designing and implementing a database solution
  1. Front-end vs. Back-end review
• Documentation
  • User documentation (manual)
  • Design documentation
  • System documentation
• System documentation
  1. Create flow chart that illustrates the options and flow of the menu system (Don't forget to show that it loops!)
  2. Create a chart that has each class/file as a box and link them to show how they interact
  3. Create a set of tables that describes each class/file that we created
     • Class name - describe the purpose of the class
     • Attributes - describe each attribute
     • Methods - describe each method and what it does
• Go through and comment your code
  • Put a commented header at the top of each file
  • The header should have the filename, purpose of the file, and author's name (you!)
• Print out and put everything together into one packet (menu flow chart, modular organization, all the code)

Monday - Wednesday (3/12/12 - 3/14/12)

Agenda:

• Demo Gradebook
• Add a (s)ort feature to your gradebook
• Searching and editing students

Tuesday - Thursday (3/6/12 - 3/8/12)

Agenda:

• Gradebook System
  • Course class
  • Student class
• Gradebook Menu
  1. Add a menu system to our gradebook example. The menu will allow the teacher to add students to a list of students
  2. Print out a menu with the following options
     • (a)dd student
     • (r)emove student
     • (p)rint student list
     • (q)uit
  3. Prompt the user what they would like to do
  4. Check what they input and then perform the task they want to do
     • If they want to add a student, then you must create a new student and prompt the user for a name and id number. You should then add it to your list of students
     • If they want to remove a student, then you must prompt the user for a name or id number. You must then use a linear search to find the student in the list. (Hint: Look at Advanced Python List Exercises). After finding the student, then you can del it from the list. You should also print a message in case the student was not found
     • If they want to print the student list, then write a loop that prints all the students in the list
     • If they want to quit, then break out of the loop
  5. Continually repeat the entire menu system forever

Friday (3/2/12)

Agenda:

• Rectangle class practice
  • Attribute(s): width, height
  • Method(s):
    • __init__(self, width=0, height=0)
    • __str__(self) - returns a string like "Rectangle WIDTH by HEIGHT"
    • getWidth(self) - returns the width
    • setWidth(self, newWidth) - saves newWidth into self.width
    • getHeight(self) - returns the height
    • setHeight(self, newHeight) - saves newHeight into self.height
    • getArea(self) - returns the area of the rectangle
    • isSquare(self) - returns True if the width is equal to the height, otherwise return False

• Gradebook System
