Grade of Mark in C program

We can enter mark to our c program and the script will try to find out the grade by using series of else if condition checking. Each if else condition check for mark for a particular grade and if it is TRUE then all other checking ( else if ) are omitted.
Getting the Grade by using input mark in C programming by using if else condition check

Here is the sample code.
#include <stdio.h>
int main(void){
    int num;  // Declare a variable to store the input
    
    printf("Enter your mark ");  // Prompt the user to enter their mark
    scanf("%d", &num);  // Read the user input
    
    printf(" You entered %d \n", num);  // Print the entered mark
    
    if(num >= 80){
        printf(" You got A grade");  // Check for A grade
    }
    else if (num >= 60){  // Check for B grade
        printf(" You got B grade");
    }
    else if (num >= 40){  // Check for C grade
        printf(" You got C grade");
    }
    else {  // Check for failing condition
        printf(" You Failed in this exam");
    }
    return 0;  // End of program
}

Not allowing mark above 100

#include <stdio.h>
int main(void){
    int num;  // Declare a variable to store the input
    
    printf("Enter your mark ");  // Prompt the user to enter their mark
    scanf("%d", &num);  // Read the user input
    
    printf(" You entered %d", num);  // Print the entered mark
    
    if (num > 100) {  // Check for invalid marks greater than 100
        printf(" ! Wrong data ");
    }
    else if (num >= 80) {  // Check for A grade
        printf(" You got A grade");
    }
    else if (num >= 60) {  // Check for B grade
        printf(" You got B grade");
    }
    else if (num >= 40) {  // Check for C grade
        printf(" You got C grade");
    }
    else {  // Check for failing condition
        printf(" You Failed in this exam");
    }
    return 0;  // End of program
}

Calculating Percentage ,Average and Grade

Ask the user to enter marks in three subjects.
Find out the Percentage of mark and average mark in three subjects.
Based on the percentage of the student in three subjects , calculate the grade using this range.

80 or above A grade
60 or above B grade
40 or above C grade
39 or less Fail
#include <stdio.h>

void main() {
    float m1, m2, m3;  // Variables for marks
    float per, avg;  // Variables for percentage and average
    float total;  // Variable for total marks
    
    printf(" enter the marks of m1 ");
    scanf("%f", &m1);  // Input for m1
    
    printf(" enter the marks of m2 ");
    scanf("%f", &m2);  // Input for m2
    
    printf("enter the marks of m3 ");
    scanf("%f", &m3);  // Input for m3
    
    total = m1 + m2 + m3;  // Calculate total marks
    printf("\n the total mark is %.2f ", total);  // Display total
    
    per = (total / 300) * 100;  // Calculate percentage
    avg = (total / 3);  // Calculate average
    printf("\n the percentage mark is : %.2f ", per);  // Display percentage
    printf("\n the average mark  is: %.2f", avg);  // Display average
    
    // Grade calculation
    if(per >= 80) printf("\n Grade : A");
    else if(per >= 60) printf("\n Grade : B");
    else if(per >= 40) printf("\n Grade : C");
    else printf("\n Fail ");  // Grade calculation based on percentage
    
    printf("\n Press Enter to exit...");
    getchar();  // Wait for user input before exiting
}

Example 2: Calculating Grades for Multiple Students Using Arrays

To calculate grades for multiple students, you can use arrays to store their marks and loop through them:

#include <stdio.h>

int main() {
    int marks[5] = {85, 92, 75, 60, 45};  // Array of student marks
    char grade;  // Variable to store the grade
    
    for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++) {  // Loop through each student
        if (marks[i] >= 90) {  // Grade A for marks 90 or above
            grade = 'A';
        } else if (marks[i] >= 80) {  // Grade B for marks 80-89
            grade = 'B';
        } else if (marks[i] >= 70) {  // Grade C for marks 70-79
            grade = 'C';
        } else if (marks[i] >= 60) {  // Grade D for marks 60-69
            grade = 'D';
        } else {  // Grade F for marks below 60
            grade = 'F';
        }
        printf("Student %d: Marks = %d, Grade = %c\n", i + 1, marks[i], grade);  // Display student info
    }
    return 0;  // Exit the program
}

Example 3: Calculating Average Grade of the Class

This example calculates the average marks and assigns a grade based on the overall class performance:

#include <stdio.h>

int main() {
    int marks[5] = {85, 92, 75, 60, 45};  // Array of student marks
    int total = 0;  // Variable to store the total marks
    float average;  // Variable to store the class average
    char grade;  // Variable to store the class grade
    
    for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++) {  // Loop through the marks array
        total += marks[i];  // Add each student's marks to the total
    }
    average = total / 5.0;  // Calculate the class average

    // Assign the grade based on the average
    if (average >= 90) {
        grade = 'A';
    } else if (average >= 80) {
        grade = 'B';
    } else if (average >= 70) {
        grade = 'C';
    } else if (average >= 60) {
        grade = 'D';
    } else {
        grade = 'F';
    }

    printf("Class Average = %.2f, Grade = %c\n", average, grade);  // Print the results

    return 0;  // End of the program
}

Example 4: Handling Invalid Input

Here’s how to handle invalid input where marks might be out of the valid range (0-100):

#include <stdio.h>

int main() {
    int mark;  // Variable to store the student's mark
    printf("Enter student's mark (0-100): ");  // Prompt user for input
    scanf("%d", &mark);  // Read the input
    
    if (mark < 0 || mark > 100) {  // Validate input range
        printf("Invalid input. Please enter a value between 0 and 100.\\n");
    } else if (mark >= 90) {  // Grade A for marks 90 and above
        printf("Grade: A\n");
    } else if (mark >= 80) {  // Grade B for marks 80-89
        printf("Grade: B\n");
    } else if (mark >= 70) {  // Grade C for marks 70-79
        printf("Grade: C\n");
    } else if (mark >= 60) {  // Grade D for marks 60-69
        printf("Grade: D\n");
    } else {  // Grade F for marks below 60
        printf("Grade: F\n");
    }

    return 0;  // End of the program
}

Allow user to enter numbers & exit if user enters 0 or negative number
if else Different tariff plan for different range of consumption (Example of if else )
