For this assignment, I provide you with a main program, you provide the missing class definition. This assigment is due Thursday, 4/15/10 at 11:59 p.m. + 1 minute.


Problem #1: A list of students

the program here.

    print "List = ", List

The program above does not use OOP. It takes a string of characters, text, splits it up into fields, and creates a list of tuples with 4 elements, where the first element is the account number of the student, the second her/his name, the fourth his/her password, and teh forth the email address.

We are going to apply OOP to it!

The missing link

The program below has the same purpose as the one above, but it uses classes and objects. The information relating to a student is now stored in an object.

.
""" 
studentClass.py

A program for the Exercises on Class/Objects
Creates a class to keep information about a student.
The class keeps track of the student's name, account number, 
password, and email address.
 
Object issued from this class have methods to
- print the student information (everything we know about a student)
- create a new student with all the information
- get the name of a student
- set the name of the student
- get the account number
- set the account number
- get the password
- get the email
- set the email of the student

Submission

Submit your program as follows:

  submit hw10 hw10a.py


Optional and Extra-Credit

Make the program output the list of student by alphabetical order of their last name.

If you do this part, simply add a new function to your program (don't forget its header) and call it from main. This function will get the list of student objects as parameters and will output the list in alphabetical order of the last names. Then submit hw10a.py as shown above.
