[SOLVED] ok i have no common sense

[serverman]

first i want to say i know this is  a stupid question

 

im working on a script that has grades in it ...in the database you start out with 100

i want the quiz grade to average with the master grade

 

mathematical how is that done?

 

im sorry lol im just not sure how

 

[Daniel0]

That kind of depends on the scoring algorithm...

[serverman]

all quizzes are worth 100 points

[Daniel0]

Yes, but how does the scoring work? Like do you get X amount of points per correct, for instance?

[serverman]

its -10 for each wrong

 

 

here is an example how it works

 

if ($q9 == "d"){
echo "9)".$q9." <font color='#33FF66'>Right</font> <br>";
}
else{
echo "9)".$q9." <font color='#FF0000'>wrong</font> <br>";
$w = $w - $v ;}

oh and v = 10 and w= 100

 

 

 

[serverman]

ok i figured it out

 

 

here is how for anyone who reads this later on

 

here is database layout

username|id|emal|ect...|numofquiz|quizgrade

 

numofquiz is the number of quizzes taken and all quiz are worth 100 points

 

so at the end of each quiz it adds points earned to what was already there in points and add +1 to quizgrade

 

now to get the grade  you do this

numofquiz*100= mostpoint

mostpoints/quizegrade=x

x*100= grade
