Homework Score Recorder

Prerequisites and Installation steps

This script needs only Python 3.x, and MUST be run within a terminal.

Installation is as easy as cloning this repo and run check.py file.

Manual instructions

1. Student list

Student list must be organized as a CSV format file namelist.csv as provided here. It's free to replace it with a new one with two columns of students' IDs and their names.

2. Operations

When this script is started, it automatically reads students' information from namelist.csv as described above. After this process is done, a prompt will appear on the screen.

2.1 Normal input

Input one score entry with format:

[student-id(-suffix)] [score]<Enter>

For example, we can input 001 10<Enter> to represent score 10 for student with ID SA21011001. The shorter suffix used, the higher probability multiple choices will occur.

2.2 Delete entry

Delete one score entry with format:

[student-id(-suffix)] del<Enter>

Hint: del is reserved for deleting a score. If del is expected to be a valid score, the DELETE_MANIPULATOR variable of the main script has to be modified. I plan to make it a parameter from command line in the future.

2.3 Show all entries

Show all entries with format:

s<Enter>

2.4 Save and exit

Save and exit with format:

q<Enter>
