This is a C++ program that calculates the SGPA (Semester Grade Point Average) for a single semester based on the grades obtained in each course.
The SGPA is calculated using the following formula: SGPA = Sum(creditEarned[i] * gradePoints[grades[i]]) / TotalCredits where:
creditEarned[i]: The credit Earned for the ith course.gradePoints[grades[i]]: The grade point corresponding to the grade obtained in the ith course.TotalCredits: The total credit earned for all courses in the semester.
You can calculate the CGPA over multiple semesters by considering the SGPA obtained in each semester and using the following formula: CGPA = Sum(SGPA[i] * SemesterCredits[i]) / TotalCredits where:
SGPA[i]: The SGPA obtained in the ith semester.SemesterCredits[i]: The total credit hours in the ith semester.TotalCredits: The overall total credit hours across all semesters.
The following grading scale is used in the calculation:
- O: 10
- A+: 9
- A: 8
- B+: 7
- B: 6
- C: 5
- P: 4
- Q: Qualifier (-)
- F: Fail (0)
The program takes the following input for each course from the user:
- Course name: The name of the course.
- Credit earned: The credit earned in the respective course.
- Grade: The grade obtained in the course (must be one of the grades in the grading scale).
- Clone the repository to your local machine.
- Compile the C++ code using a C++ compiler (e.g., g++).
- Run the executable file and follow the on-screen instructions to input course details.
- The program will display the calculated SGPA for the semester.
