Logistics
The algorithm used to incorporate this assignment in your overall grade is the following:
# hw13 is the makeup assignment.
if youDoThisMakeupAssignment():
hw13 = # your grade on this assignment
else:
hw13 = 0
# create a list of all your homework assignment grades. homework assignments missed get a 0
homeworkGrades = [ hw1, hw2, hw3, hw4, hw5, hw6, hw7, hw8, hw9, hw10, hw11, hw12 ]
# find the lowest grade
minHW = min( homeworkGrades )
# find where the lowest grade is
minIndex = homeworkGrades.index( minHW )
# replace lowest with grade of hw13 if this one is greater
if hw13 > minHW:
L[ minIndex ] = hw13
# Drop the lowest assignment of the semester
minHW = min( homeworkGrades )
minIndex = homeworkGrades.index( minHW )
homeworkGrades.pop( minIndex )
