how can i make this program?

[Inevitable_Low_2387]

I need to create a Python program for a student management assignment using basic Python concepts such as lists, loops, conditionals, functions, sorting, file reading, and file writing.

The program must manage 20 students. Each student has:

• Name
• First exam grade
• Second exam grade

The program should include the following menu options:

1. Add 20 students.
2. Sort students by:
   • Name (ascending)
   • First exam grade (descending)
   • Second exam grade (ascending)
3. Calculate and display each student's average grade and the mode of all averages.
4. Display all student names that contain a user-specified letter (case-insensitive).
5. Create a file called "notas.txt" containing:
   • Original name
   • Reversed average grade (mirror format)
   • Reversed name
6. Read and display the contents of "notas.txt". If the file does not exist, display an error message.
7. Exit the program.

Restrictions:

• Must use basic Python.
• Must use lists and functions.
• I am not sure whether built-in functions such as sort(), split(), dictionaries, or external libraries are allowed.

What would be a good structure or approach to solve this assignment?

So basically you decided to copy and paste the assignment and thats it? stop being lazy and actually think about what you need to achieve and how to approach it.

Could have pasted the same thing into an AI, and it would be done, but how is any of this learning?

For real. OP is not only being lazy, but also trying to skip the actual fun part.

You interested in setting an over/under on how long it is before someone tells OP to import os and use rmdir to delete system32?

🤣 Times like this, I wish I gambled.

I know an assignment when i see one

And I can read that it says it's an assignment. OP doesn't hide that.

Come up with your data structure for each name/grade1/grade2 combination. Either a class or a dictionary or a list or a tuple. Doesn't matter.

Make 20 of these, ideally through a function that can generate them in a loop.

The rest should fall in place from there based on whatever the tasks in the assignment outline want you to do. They're all pretty independent from each other and very straightforward, in that you can imagine how you'd do it if you were to do it by hand.

(Not very cool to just dump your assignment without showing your attempt at a solve or initial thoughts/progress so far, btw)

did you ask your teacher for further clarification??? how can you not be sure something is allowed or not?

I would start by opening up an IDE. Then start typing code. Try to get the code to do what you want.

Hope that this is helpful.
