Add Grade
Part of the Logic & Flow section of Coddy's Python journey — lesson 41 of 78.
Challenge
EasyCreate a function named add_grade that takes two arguments: name (string) and grade (integer). The function should:
- Check if the student name exists in the
student_recordsdictionary.- If it does not exist, print
"Student '<name>' not found.".
- If it does not exist, print
- If the name exists, add the
gradeto the student'sgradesset. - Print
"Grade <grade> added for student '<name>'.".
Add (replace) the following block of code at the bottom of your code:
add_student("Alice", 20, ["Math", "Physics"])
add_student("Bob", 22, ["Biology", "Chemistry"])
add_grade("Alice", 90)
add_grade("Alice", 85)
add_grade("Bob", 75)
add_grade("Charlie", 80) # Non-existent student
print(student_records)Try it yourself
student_records = {}
def add_student(name, age, courses):
if name in student_records:
print(f"Student '{name}' already exists.")
return
student_records[name] = {"age": age, "grades": set(), "courses": set(courses)}
print(f"Student '{name}' added successfully.")
add_student("Alice", 20, ["Math", "Physics"])
add_student("Bob", 22, ["Biology", "Chemistry"])
print(student_records)All lessons in Logic & Flow
