Answer 9

void fillArrayFromFile(ifstream& ins,student studentArray[], int& numberOfStudents, int weightMidterm, int weightFinal, int weightQuizzes, int weightLabs, int weightProjects)
{
int id;
string firstName;
string lastName;;
string line;
numberOfStudents = 0;

while (!ins.eof())
{

ins >> studentArray[numberOfStudents].id
>> studentArray[numberOfStudents].first
>> studentArray[numberOfStudents].last
>> studentArray[numberOfStudents].midterm
>> studentArray[numberOfStudents].final
>> studentArray[numberOfStudents].quizzes
>> studentArray[numberOfStudents].labs
>> studentArray[numberOfStudents].project;
numberOfStudents++;
}
}

void updateTotalGrade(student studArray[], int index, int weightMidterm, int weightFinal,
int weightQuizzes, int weightLabs, int weightProject)
{
int totalGrade;
index = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < index; i++)
{

}

}
