Simple Method to calculate average and grade

[deanhystad]

naughtyCat, your letter grade code does not work.:

average = [95]

for item in average:
    if item > 90: print(f"{item}: grade A")
    if item > 80: print(f"{item}: grade B")
    if item > 70: print(f"{item}: grade C")
    else: print(f"{item}: grade F")

Output:
95: grade A
95: grade B
95: grade C

I thought the output looked odd and realized there were more grades reported in the output than there were grades in the score lists.

You could do this:

for item in average:
    if item > 90: print(f"{item}: grade A"); continue
    if item > 80: print(f"{item}: grade B"); continue
    if item > 70: print(f"{item}: grade C"); continue
    print(f"{item}: grade F")

But that having multiple statements on one line is frowned upon.

This is better, but still frowned upon.

for item in average:
    if item > 90: print(f"{item}: grade A")  # Still multiple statements on one line
    elif item > 80: print(f"{item}: grade B")
    elif item > 70: print(f"{item}: grade C")
    else: print(f"{item}: grade F")
