We are going to write a program that generates some student information. This exercise will practice our skills with strings, random numbers, arrays and iterators.
-
You will start by creating three arrays:
- An array that will contain student names
- An array that will store student ID numbers
- An array that will contain student email addresses
Note Make sure to name your variables appropriately so that it is easy to deduce the information stored in each array and that this information is not singular. e.g.
flowers = ["lily", "rose", "gardenia", "daisy"] vs. flower = "tulip" -
Write a
timesloop that asks the user to enter in 5 student names (first and last name) and store those values in the first array in all uppercase even if the information is not entered by the user in uppercase.
Example output:
-
Write a
timesloop to generate random student ID numbers from 111111 to 999999 and put these values to the student ID number array.
Example output:
-
Write a
timesloop to generate student email addresses in the format: (first inital)+(last name)+(last 3 digits of student ID number)@adadevelopersacademy.org
Example output:
-
Write the code which will print out all the student names, ID numbers, and email addresses in parallel.
- make sure none of the IDs are duplicates
- account for ID numbers whose last 3 digits are less than 100 (e.g. 111008) because these ID numbers will generate an email address with less than 3 digits at the end without special cases.
- on email generation, account for first names with a space in them
e.g. if the first name is “Mary Jane”, then the first initial should be "MJ" rather than just "M" - read in the student names from a file instead of the user and make the array size according to the number of names
