Question 2 [20 Marks]

Assume that the following DUT student results for Semester 2 are contained in the Text File
StudentResults.txt for some of the students registered for APDB101:

Figure 1

You are required to examine and complete the C#.NET button/driver code below that uses the
MT1, MT2, and Quiz1 marks stored in the StudentResults.txt text file to calculate the average
mark for each student and determine whether the student has passed or failed. The student will
pass if he/she obtained the average mark of 50 and above. Display the student number, MT1
mark, MT2 mark, Quiz1 mark, average mark, and result, each separated by a tab (as shown in
Figure 1).
Driver code
private void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
string lineRec = "";
double average = 0;
2.1_____Results; [1mark]

string[] lineArray = new 2.2 _________ ; [1 mark]

StreamReader file = new 2.3____(@"C:\Users\Zibuyisile


Magubane\Desktop\StudentResults.txt"); [1 mark]

using (file)
{
2.4 _______ = file.ReadLine(); [1 mark]

while (lineRec != null)


{
lineArray = 2.5________; [1½ marks]
average =(________2.6____________________________); [5 marks]
if (__2.7_________) [1½ marks]
{
2.8______________; [1 mark]
}
else
{
2.9_______________; [1 Mark]
}
lstOutput.Items.Add (_____2.10___________________); [6 marks]
lineRec = file.ReadLine();
}
}
}

Question 3 [15 Marks]

Writing to a text file using the StreamWriter class.

Examine the following C# code and answer the questions (3.1 to 3.6 ) below:

private void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)


{
string[] studentNames = { "Kyle", "Amahle", "Willow", "Sifiso", "Jane" };
string filePath = "StudentNames.txt";
StreamWriter objSW = new StreamWriter(filePath);
using (objSW)
{
for (int i = 0; i < studentNames.Length; i++)
{
objSW.WriteLine(studentNames[i]);
}
}
}
3.1 After the code above has executed, how will the data be presented or appear in the
StudentNames.txt text file? Provide the expected output on your answer sheet. [1]
3.2 How would you modify this code to append new student names to the text file
instead of overwriting it, write the complete line of code? [1]
3.3 What is the length of the studentNames array? [1]
3.4 What data type is studentNames [1 ]
3.5 Add a line of code to display a message box indicating that the file has been
written to successfully. [1]
3.6 Write the C# Windows application which will use the StreamReader class to read a text file
named “StudentNames,” located at @”StudentNames.txt.” The application should display the
output on the list box which is named as “lstOutput,” as shown in Figure 2 below. [10]
