Classwork:
Write a program, YI_GPACalculator.java to read grades from a text file. The grades will have a specific structure so the marking periods, the subjects, and categories can be identified.

The file structure given here is just an example. You should notice it has some redundancy. You can configure your own structure to enable easier implementation.

Here is some code that might help you read the file.

1. Using PU libraries: StdIn.java

/**
 * Calculate the GPA given a file with all the requirements.
 * Q1
 * Subject: English
 * Categories start:
 * Homework: .30
 * Classwork:
 * ....
 * ....
 * END
 * 
 * java GPACalculator1 < gpadata.txt
 * 
 */
public class GPACalculator1
{
    public static void main(String [] args)
    {

            while (StdIn.hasNextLine()) {
                String s1 = StdIn.readLine();
                System.out.println(s1);
            }
          
    
    }
    
}

1. Using java libraries:

import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileNotFoundException;
import java.util.Scanner;
/**
 * Calculate the GPA given a file with all the requirements.
 * Subject: English
 * Catgories beginning:
 * 
 */
public class GPACalculator2
{
    public static void main(String [] args)
    {
        
        File file = new File(args[0]);
    
        try {
    
            Scanner sc = new Scanner(file);
    
            while (sc.hasNextLine()) {
                String s1 = sc.nextLine();
                System.out.println(s1);
            }
            sc.close();
        } 
        catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    
    }
    
}

Before you get started writing code,
1. Draft a flowchart or a concise pseudocode.
2. Trace few grades from one subject for Q1 and Q2.
3. Manually calculate the GPA for the data used in the trace.
4. Confirm that your trace and calculation coincide.

Let’s use the following documentation Java™ Platform, Standard Edition 8
API Specification to create our own resources: 

ArrayList

From the documentation copy and paste the following methods’ description:

* 1
* boolean add(E e)
*
* 2
* void add(int index, E element)

* Having two methods with the same name but different argument list
* is called OVERLOADING
*
* 3
* E get(int index)
*
* 4
* E set(int index, E element)
*
* 5
* int indexOf(Object o)
*
* 6
* boolean isEmpty()
* Returns true if this list contains no elements.
*
* 7
* E remove(int index)
*
* 8
* boolean remove(Object o)
*
* 9
* int size()

Assignment:
ArrayListBasics_YI.java
Write a program that does the following:
Choose a meaningful and complete message for each item in the list.

1. It creates an ArrayList, anAList of 100 random integers between any values from 1 to 1000 and find the two consecutive integers with the smallest difference between the two of them.

2. It finds and prints with a message the largest value in anAList.

3. It finds and prints with a message the average value in anAList.

4. It prints all the numbers from anAList separated with a space and in one line.

5. It prints the numbers from anAlist separated by 3 spaces in 10 columns by 10 rows format. Use printf to achieve this format. Do not use tab: “\t”.

6. Prompt the user for an integer and replace the 10th Integer with this new one. Display a message to acknowledge wether it was found.

7. Prompt the user for a number and search for that number. Display the number and the index where it was found.

8. Remove 10th Integer and print a message with the number.

9. Print the number of elements the ArrayList anAlist contains.

Note: Use printf to keep all your numbers tab properly.
