i want to assign the grades with the grade points how can i do that?

string[] grades = {"A+","A","A-","B+","B","B-","C+","C","C-","D+","D","F"};
float[] gradePoints = { 4.0f,4.0f,3.7f,3.3f,3,2.7f,2.3f,2,1.7f,1.3f,1,0 };

string[] grades = {"A+","A","A-","B+","B","B-","C+","C","C-","D+","D","F"};
float[] gradePoints = { 4.0f,4.0f,3.7f,3.3f,3,2.7f,2.3f,2,1.7f,1.3f,1,0 };

example i want to assign A+ to 4.0

Sossenbinder•6mo ago

Sounds like you want a Dictionary<string, float>, right?

cjOP•6mo ago

what is best method to do that yeah how can i do that ?

Angius•6mo ago

Like any dictionary

var grades = new Dictionary<string, float>() {
    ["A+"] = 4.0,
    ["A"] = 4.0,
    ["A-"] = 3.7,
    // ...
}

var grades = new Dictionary<string, float>() {
    ["A+"] = 4.0,
    ["A"] = 4.0,
    ["A-"] = 3.7,
    // ...
}

var gradeMapping = new Dictionary<string, float>(){
    ["A+"] = 4.0f,
    ["A"] = 4.0f,
}

var gradeMapping = new Dictionary<string, float>(){
    ["A+"] = 4.0f,
    ["A"] = 4.0f,
}

Ah, beat me to it

cjOP•6mo ago

so i don't need the second array? because i can already assign it with this way right?

Angius•6mo ago

Yeah

Sossenbinder•6mo ago

Depends on whether you need access to an array of the potential grades outside of the dictionary lookup, but you could also get the Values of the dictionary in case you need that

var grades = new Dictionary<string, float>() {
    ["A+"] = 4.0f,
    ["A"] = 4.0f,
    ["A-"] = 3.7f,
    // ...
};

grades["A"]

var grades = new Dictionary<string, float>() {
    ["A+"] = 4.0f,
    ["A"] = 4.0f,
    ["A-"] = 3.7f,
    // ...
};

grades["A"]

nice

Have a look at https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.linq.enumerable.zip?view=net-8.0 maybe it is also suitable for you if you want to keep two value sources initially

Enumerable.Zip Method (System.Linq)

Applies a specified function to the corresponding elements of two sequences, producing a sequence of the results.

string[] grades = {"A+","A","A-","B+","B","B-","C+","C","C-","D+","D","F"};

var grades = new Dictionary<string, float>()
{

    ["A+"]=4.0f,
    ["A"]=4.0f,
    ["A-"]=3.7f,
    ["B+"]=3.3f,
    ["B"]=3,
    ["B-"]=2.7f,
    ["C+"]=2.3f,
    ["C"]=2,
    ["C-"]=1.7f,
    ["D+"]=1.3f,
    ["D"]=1,
    ["F"]=0,
};
grades["B+"];

           

Console.ReadLine();

string[] grades = {"A+","A","A-","B+","B","B-","C+","C","C-","D+","D","F"};

var grades = new Dictionary<string, float>()
{

    ["A+"]=4.0f,
    ["A"]=4.0f,
    ["A-"]=3.7f,
    ["B+"]=3.3f,
    ["B"]=3,
    ["B-"]=2.7f,
    ["C+"]=2.3f,
    ["C"]=2,
    ["C-"]=1.7f,
    ["D+"]=1.3f,
    ["D"]=1,
    ["F"]=0,
};
grades["B+"];

           

Console.ReadLine();

what is wrong here?

cjOP•6mo ago

Sossenbinder•6mo ago

- You're reusing the variable name "grades", that's not valid C# - The grades["B+"]; is a noop, you are not using it for anything

cjOP•6mo ago

i want to display it it doesn't

Console.WriteLine(grades["B+"]);

Console.WriteLine(grades["B+"]);

Sossenbinder•6mo ago

I think what you want to do is, removing or renaming either the array or the dictionary, removing the grades["B+"] line, read the input and then look up the result and output it again Ah, or that

cjOP•6mo ago

mayybe yeah

Sossenbinder•6mo ago

I mean I could just drop you the code but we can also step through Did you remove the string[] grades for now? Or do you still need it for your sample?

cjOP•6mo ago

nvm i amm so stupid xd

  string[] grades = {"A+","A","A-","B+","B","B-","C+","C","C-","D+","D","F"};

  var grade = new Dictionary<string, float>()
  {

      ["A+"]=4.0f,
      ["A"]=4.0f,
      ["A-"]=3.7f,
      ["B+"]=3.3f,
      ["B"]=3,
      ["B-"]=2.7f,
      ["C+"]=2.3f,
      ["C"]=2,
      ["C-"]=1.7f,
      ["D+"]=1.3f,
      ["D"]=1,
      ["F"]=0,
  };
  

 

  Console.WriteLine(grade["B+"]);
  Console.ReadLine();

  string[] grades = {"A+","A","A-","B+","B","B-","C+","C","C-","D+","D","F"};

  var grade = new Dictionary<string, float>()
  {

      ["A+"]=4.0f,
      ["A"]=4.0f,
      ["A-"]=3.7f,
      ["B+"]=3.3f,
      ["B"]=3,
      ["B-"]=2.7f,
      ["C+"]=2.3f,
      ["C"]=2,
      ["C-"]=1.7f,
      ["D+"]=1.3f,
      ["D"]=1,
      ["F"]=0,
  };
  

 

  Console.WriteLine(grade["B+"]);
  Console.ReadLine();

it worked

Sossenbinder•6mo ago

Nice 👍

cjOP•6mo ago

i can remove the string array now i don't need it so i want to read the grade

 var grade = new Dictionary<string, float>()
 {

     ["A+"]=4.0f,
     ["A"]=4.0f,
     ["A-"]=3.7f,
     ["B+"]=3.3f,
     ["B"]=3,
     ["B-"]=2.7f,
     ["C+"]=2.3f,
     ["C"]=2,
     ["C-"]=1.7f,
     ["D+"]=1.3f,
     ["D"]=1,
     ["F"]=0,
 };

 

          
 Console.ReadLine(grade);
 Console.WriteLine(grade);

 var grade = new Dictionary<string, float>()
 {

     ["A+"]=4.0f,
     ["A"]=4.0f,
     ["A-"]=3.7f,
     ["B+"]=3.3f,
     ["B"]=3,
     ["B-"]=2.7f,
     ["C+"]=2.3f,
     ["C"]=2,
     ["C-"]=1.7f,
     ["D+"]=1.3f,
     ["D"]=1,
     ["F"]=0,
 };

 

          
 Console.ReadLine(grade);
 Console.WriteLine(grade);

cjOP•6mo ago

 string v = Console.ReadLine(grade);

 string v = Console.ReadLine(grade);

even if i did this

Angius•6mo ago

Console.ReadLine() does not take any arguments You want to use it to take user input Then use that input to look up the grade Then write that grade out

cjOP•6mo ago

            grade = Console.ReadLine();


            Console.WriteLine(grade);

            grade = Console.ReadLine();


            Console.WriteLine(grade);
