Answer to Question #255206 in Java | JSP | JSF for Monte

Question

Create a program that takes in a student first name and average mark obtained, the system should the group the students using the first letter in their name modulus 10 [ Remember that characters are considered as numeric values, hence ‘J’%10 is a valid calculation ]. For example if the student name is Cena, then the student belongs to group 7 because ‘C’%10 = 7 and if the name was Jack then the student belongs to group 4. The program should further use the group number to get the group lecturer and class date as follows: [Hint: If the result is 0 then the student belongs to group 10]
