FEUP Maximizing Student Grades For A Change

Posted: March 25th, 2008

Or not. Someone got min() and max() confused:

Maxing Student Grades

Nota Final = max(Nota do exame final+Nota do trabalho, 18)

translation: Final Grade = max(Exam Grade + Assignment Grade, 18)
[Note: it’s 18/20 – 20 is the maximum grade possible)

Than again, maybe it’s not  a mistake. Perhaps the teacher really enjoys giving high grades in the 18-20 range. Now wouldn’t that be different…
