GPA calculate

I would use a dictionary for this rather than adding multiple elif statements. It's easier to add new cases and is easier to read.

There's also no need to add items to a "grade" array if you use the dictionary approach as you can look up the key's (grade) value (score) straight away.

Removing the while loop means we don't need the y variable.

Applying the .upper() method to the input straight away makes it more readable in my oppinion.

Code
Diff
  • total = 0

grade_dictionary = {
    "A+":4.0,
    "A":4.0,
    "A-":3.7,
    "B+":3.3,
    "B":3.0,
    "B-":2.7,
    "C+":2.3,
    "C":2.0,
    "C-": 1.7,
    "D": 1.0,
    }

for _ in range(6):
    grade = input("Enter Your Grade For Each Class Listed in Order (Letter Form): ").upper()
    total += grade_dictionary.get(grade, 0)
    
print(total / 6)
    • y = 0
    • while (y <=5):
    • grade = input("Enter Your Grade For Each Class Listed in Order (Letter Form): ")
    • grade = grade.upper()
    • grades.append(grade)
    • y = y + 1
    • calculate()
