Setup the Application

If you want to use Visual Studio

If you want to use Visual Studio (highly recommended) follow the following steps:

If you already have Visual Studio installed make sure you have .Net Core installed by running the "Visual Studio Installer" and making sure ".NET Core cross-platform development" is checked
If you need to install visual studio download it at https://www.microsoft.com/net/download/ (If you'r using Windows you'll want to check ".NET Core cross-platform development" on the workloads screen during installation.)
Open the .sln file in visual studio
To run the application simply press the Start Debug button (green arrow) or press F5
If you're using Visual Studio on Windows, to run tests open the Test menu, click Run, then click on Run all tests (results will show up in the Test Explorer)
If you're using Visual Studio on macOS, to run tests, select the GradeBookTests Project, then go to the Run menu, then click on Run Unit Tests (results will show up in the Unit Tests panel)

(Note: All tests should fail at this point, this is by design. As you progress through the projects more and more tests will pass. All tests should pass upon completion of the project.)

If you don't plan to use Visual studio

If you would rather use something other than Visual Studio

Install the .Net Core SDK from https://www.microsoft.com/net/download/core once that installation completes you're ready to roll!
To run the application go into the GradeBook project folder and type dotnet run
To run the tests go into the GradeBookTests project folder and type dotnet test

Features you will impliment

Add support for Ranked Grading
Add support for Weighted GPAs

Tasks necessary to complete implimentation:

Note: this isn't the only way to accomplish this, however; this is what the project's tests are expecting. Implimenting this in a different way will likely result in being marked as incomplete / incorrect.

What Now?

You've compeleted the tasks of this project, if you want to continue working on this project some next steps would be to add support for some of the other grading formats, set Save to run with Add/Removing students and grades, etc.

Otherwise now is a good time to continue on the C# path to expand your understanding of the C# programming language or start looking into the User Interface options of C# whether that's ASP.NET (web), XAML (applications), DirectX (Graphically intense applications), etc
