I'm fairly new to PHP and trying to sort a class project. I've banged away and can't see to sort it out, this is the last remaining piece.
I have a form - submit essentially 2 arrays I'm trying to determine the average score for based upon the category groupings. 1. ($_post['category']), ($_post['score']) - with category being a text based array and score obviously being numbers based.
How would I go about finding the average score for each category? I've tried various options to for mapping the two arrays and then trying to average the grades. I can get the total score average pretty easily, but finding a ways to do this by each category individually is tripping me up.
I need to apply a weight to each category score, but that seems pretty easy once you get the above sorted.
Thanks, Steve
$_POST example:
Array ( [0] => Assignment [1] => Assignment [2] => Assignment [3] => Assignment [4] => Assignment [5] => Assignment [6] => Exam [7] => Assignment [8] => Assignment [9] => Assignment [10] => Exam [11] => Exam [12] => Final Project ) Array ( [0] => 100 [1] => 100 [2] => 100 [3] => 98 [4] => 90 [5] => 92 [6] => 100 [7] => 100 [8] => 100 [9] => 100 [10] => 100 [11] => 92 [12] => 100 )
