Create a program that outputs a result for a student based upon the mean grade of eight module grades and a project mark.

The rules for the marks are the same as for the above exercises. The pass mark is 40 and a valid grade is in the range [0,100]. These rules apply to individual module grades and to the project.

The result is computed as follows:

If any individual module grade or the project grade is not valid then the result is “ERROR”.

If any single grade (for a module or the project) is less than 40, the result is “FAIL”.

If the mean mark for the modules is less than 40, the result is “FAIL”.

If the criteria for “ERROR” and “FAIL” do not apply, and either the mean grade or the project grade is less than 50, the result is “PASS”.

If the criteria for “ERROR”, “FAIL” and “PASS” do not apply, and either the mean grade or the project grade is less than 70, the result is “MERIT”.

If the mean module grade and the project grade are greater than or equal to 70, the result is “DISTINCTION”.

Your program should have a class called ResultChecker with a main method. Your ResultChecker class must have the following method:


public static String getResult(int[] grades)

This method returns one of the String values above based upon the input grades and the project grade. Thus, the return value of this method will be one of {“ERROR”, “FAIL”, “PASS”, “MERIT”, “DISTINC- TION”}.

Follow-up Question

I haven't started solving this problem because I do not understand what the project mark means. Could you please explain what the project mark means?
