+ | ==== 4.2. Gradebooks ==== | ||
+ | More general implementation of ''taken'', ''dropn'' and ''part'' are already implemented in Scala and can be used as member functions of lists. Examples are shown below: | ||
+ | <code scala> | ||
+ | val l = List(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9) | ||
+ | l.take(3) | ||
+ | l.drop(3) | ||
+ | l.partition(_%2 == 0) | ||
+ | </code> | ||
+ | In what follows, we shall encode a gradebook as a list of pairs ''(<name>,<grade>)'', where ''<name>'' is a String and ''<grade>'' is an Int. Example: | ||
+ | <code scala> | ||
+ | val gradebook = List(("G",3), ("F", 10), ("M",6), ("P",4)) | ||
+ | </code> | ||
+ | |||
+ | To make the type signatures more legible, we can introduce type aliases in Scala: | ||
+ | <code scala> | ||
+ | type Gradebook = List[(String,Int)] //the type Gradebook now refers to a list of pairs of String and Int | ||
+ | </code> | ||
+ | Add this type alias to your code before solving the following exercises. | ||
+ | |||
+ | **4.2.1.** Write a function which adds one point to all students which have a passing grade (>= 5), and leaves all other grades unchanged. | ||
+ | <code scala> | ||
+ | def increment(g: Gradebook): Gradebook = | ||
+ | g.map(???) | ||
+ | </code> | ||
+ | |||
+ | **4.2.2.** Find the average grade from a gradebook. You must use ''foldRight''. | ||
+ | <code scala> | ||
+ | def average(g: Gradebook): Double = ??? | ||
+ | </code> | ||
+ | |||
+ | **4.2.3.** Write a function which takes a gradebook and returns the percentage of failed vs. passed students, as a pair (x,y). | ||
+ | <code scala> | ||
+ | def percentage(g: Gradebook): (Double,Double) = ??? | ||
+ | </code> | ||
+ | |||
+ | **4.2.4.** Write a function which takes a gradebook and returns the list of names which have passed. Use filter and map from Scala. | ||
+ | <code scala> | ||
+ | def pass(g: Gradebook): List[String] = ??? | ||
+ | </code> | ||
+ | |||
+ | **4.2.5.** Implement merge-sort (in ascending order) over gradebooks: | ||
+ | <code scala> | ||
+ | def mergeSort(l: Gradebook): Gradebook = { | ||
+ | def merge(u: Gradebook, v: Gradebook): Gradebook = ??? | ||
+ | ??? | ||
+ | } | ||
+ | </code> | ||
+ | |||
+ | **4.2.6** Write a function which takes a gradebook and reports all passing students in **descending** order of their grade. | ||
+ | <code scala> | ||
+ | def honorsList(g: Gradebook): List[String] = ??? | ||
+ | </code> |
