Grading System Project

Overview

This project automates the grading of student exams based on teacher-provided solutions. It was developed in Java using Eclipse IDE.

Description

Project Setup

1. Creating Project Structure:

   • Created a folder named "Final Project OOP" on the desktop.
   • Set this folder as the workspace in Eclipse.

2. Folder Organization:

   • Inside "Final Project OOP," established a sub-folder named "Grading."
   • Created a "Student" folder within "Grading," containing individual student exam answers.
   • Added a file named "Solutions.txt" in the "Grading" folder for teacher solutions.

Java Classes

1. Exam Class:

   • Contains constructors and methods for handling individual student exams.

2. Teacher Class:

   • Manages file paths and methods for grading multiple student exams against solutions.

3. TestGrading Class:

   • Main method to execute grading, writing results to "StudentScore.txt" and statistical data to another file.

Challenges Faced

Problem Encountered

• Difficulty accessing files within the project structure from Eclipse.

Solution

• Adjusted file path definitions in Java classes, ensuring correct referencing (e.g., corrected "Solution.txt" to "src/Grading/Solutions.txt").
• Consulted course materials and external resources for guidance on Java file handling.

Lessons Learned

• Importance of precise file path management in Java projects.
• Value of revisiting foundational concepts and leveraging diverse learning resources for problem-solving.
