Like the title says, it only output the first if statement. I had tried making the include format generalAverage < 97 && generalAverage >94 and adding .00 to the conditions but nothing worked.

#include<stdio.h>

char remarks[7][20] = {"Excellent", "Very Good", "Good", "Satisfactory", "Fair", "Passed", "Failed"}, opt;
float prelim, midterm, final, generalAverage, equivalent;

int main(){
    do {
        printf("STUDENT GRADE CALCULATOR\n");
        printf("      Enter the Prelim Grade        :   ");
        scanf(" %f", &prelim);
        printf("      Enter the Midterm Grade       :   ");
        scanf(" %f", &midterm);
        printf("      Enter the Final Grade     :   ");
        scanf(" %f", &final);
        printf("\n");
        
        generalAverage = (prelim   midterm   final) / 3;
        
        if (generalAverage > 96) {
            printf("     The General Average is     :   %.2f\n", generalAverage);

CodePudding user response：

First if{} and second else if{ }block considers all the cases.

CodePudding user response：

Your else if are in the wrong order.

if the generalAverage is 80 it will always go into the first else if becourse its < 97.

just start with the smalest and work your way up.

CodePudding user response：

You should check from "tight", via "more generous" to "else".

if (generalAverage < 75) {
}
else if  (generalAverage == 75) {
}
else if (generalAverage < 77) {
}
else if (generalAverage < 82) {
}
else if (generalAverage < 85) {
}
else if (generalAverage < 88) {
}
else if (generalAverage < 89) {
}
else if (generalAverage < 94) {
}
else if (generalAverage < 97) {
} else                        {
}

If you start with (or early on have) generous checks like

if (generalAverage < 97)

all the rest is ignored, because of the (otherwise sensible) if-else chain.
