Intro to Programming with Python - Tutorial 9 - Exercise 2

This is our second exercise for tutorial 9 (https://youtu.be/rW-iqRxP6Cs)

In this exercise we have to redo the exercise from tutorial 8 using a while loop.

So for this exercise:

• Initialize an empty grades dictionary variable.
• Prompt the user for the number of students in the class. 
• Convert the number of students to an integer
• Use a WHILE loop to allow the user to enter each student name and grade and add them to the grades dictionary.
• When finished print the grades dictionary back to the user in a friendly manner. You can use the same for loop to pretty print the dictionary as used in tutorial 8

Here is a sample output of running this program:

Here is the code that accomplishes this:

	# Ask the user how many students they have in their class
	numOfStudents = int(input('How many students do you have in your class? '))
	# Create an empty grades dictionary
	grades = {}
	# Here is how we loop N times using a while loop
	num = 0
	while num < numOfStudents:
	name = input('Enter student name: ')
	# Read the mark and convert it to int
	mark = int(input('Enter student mark: '))
	grades[name] = mark
	# Now we increment the num variable by 1
	num += 1
	# Now pretty print
	print('Your class grades are as follows: ')
	for name in grades:
	print(' ', name, '-->', grades[name])
