its easy to get confused when you have a big chunk of code like this … instead try and split your problem into smaller parts<\/p>\n

start with a function to get the details of only one student<\/p>\n

def get_student_detail(num_tests): # get the detail for just 1 student!\n    student_name = input(\"Enter Student Name:\")\n    scores = []\n    for i in range(1,num_tests+1):\n        scores.append(float(input(\"Enter Score on test %s:\"%i)))\n    return {'name':student_name,'scores':scores,'avg':sum(scores)\/float(num_tests)}\n<\/code><\/pre>\n
now just call this for each student<\/p>\n
student_1 = get_student_detail(num_tests=3)\nstudent_2 = get_student_detail(num_tests=3)\nstudent_3 = get_student_detail(num_tests=3)\n\nprint(\"Student 1:\",student_1)\nprint(\"Student 2:\",student_2)\nprint(\"Student 3:\",student_3)\n<\/code><\/pre>\n
or better yet implement a function that lets you keep going as long as you want<\/p>\n
def get_students():\n    resp=\"a\"\n    students = []\n    while resp[0].lower() != \"n\":\n        student = get_student_detail(num_tests=3)\n        students.append(student)\n        resp = input(\"Enter another students details?\")\n    return student\n<\/code><\/pre>\n
you may want to split out get_student_details<\/code> even further writing a method to get a single test score and validate that its actually a number (this will crash as is if you enter something that isnt a number as a test score), or to keep asking for test scores until an empty response is given, etc<\/p>\n
def get_number(prompt):\n    while True:\n         try: \n            return float(input(prompt))\n         except ValueError:\n            print (\"That is not a valid number!\")\n\ndef get_test_score(prompt):\n    while True:\n        score = get_number(prompt)\n        if 0 <= score <= 100:\n             return score\n        print(\"Please enter a value between 1 and 100!\")\n\ntest_score = get_test_score(\"Enter test score for test 1:\")\nprint(test_score)\n<\/code><\/pre>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
