Lesson 2.4 · Write it

Grade letter

A whole programPython or Java7 tests, 4 of them hidden

On a phone? Put the lines in order instead

Write a program that reads a mark (a whole number, 0 to 100) and prints the mark, then the grade on the next line.

  1. Always print Mark: followed by the mark on the first line.
  2. On the next line, print the grade letter:
  • 90 or more: A
  • 70 to 89: B
  • 50 to 69: C
  • below 50: F
  1. Spaces at the end of a line are ignored.

Your program is run several times. Only what it prints is checked.

In Python, use elif. In Java, use else if.

Running Java here comes later. You can put this answer's lines in order instead. You can still write your Java answer (it stays while this page is open) and compare it with our worked solution. Or try this exercise in Python.

Examples

Your program is run 7 times: the 3 examples below, and 4 hidden ones that check the rules above. Only what it prints is checked.

  • an A (rule 2)

    You type

    1. typed: 95

    It prints

    Mark: 95
    A
  • a B (rule 2)

    You type

    1. typed: 75

    It prints

    Mark: 75
    B
  • exactly 90: the A boundary (rule 2)

    You type

    1. typed: 90

    It prints

    Mark: 90
    A
