How can I exclude my count from my grade average?
0
I'm trying to figure out how to have a count when when I want to display my file, but not have the count get added into my grade average.
def main():
choice = "q"
while choice != "X":
print_menu()
choice = input("Enter an option (D, C, X): ")
if choice == "D":
DisplayScores()
elif choice == "C":
CalcAverage()
def print_menu():
print("D. Display Grades")
print("C. Calculate Average")
print("X. Exit Application")
def DisplayScores():
try:
infile = open("data.txt",'r')
count = 0
for line in infile:
count += 1
print(count,line.rstrip("n"))
line = infile.readline()
infile.close()
except IOError:
print("File does not exist.")
except:
print("Unknown error.")
def CalcAverage():
Average = 0.0
try:
datafile = open("data.txt", 'r')
for grade in datafile:
total = float(grade)
Average += total
print("The average of the class is: ", format(Average/29, '.2f'))
except IOError:
print("Something is wrong with the file.")
print("Unknown Error.")
datafile.close()
main()
python count

Why are you printing the average each time through the loop? You can't know what the average is until the loop is finished. Also, it would be better to divide by the actual number of grades in the file, instead of assuming 29. Try this instead:
total = 0.0
grades = 0
try:
datafile = open("data.txt", 'r')
for grade in datafile:
grades += 1
total += float(grade)
print("The average of the class is: ", format(total/grades, '.2f'))
