Project Notes

This conversion program is built to easily translate traditional 100 point grade scale (where F=55) to the 4 point Carnegie-Melon scale (where F=0). It works in one of two modes: Percentage mode will take a grade percentage from 0-100 and translate it to a comparable grade on the 0-4 scale. It also outputs a conversion ratio, which indicates what an adjusted percentage would be outside of the 0-4 range. X of Y mode will allow users to input thier own grade ratios and recieve an adjusted grade, aligned with the 0-4 scale, within the same ratio. In this mode, the points possible data is stored internally, allowing repeated input without having to specify possible points again and again. To change the points possible value, reset the program by clicking the green flag. - Chris Zappe (July 2011) v1.0
