In UBC-MDS/rgtracker: Grade Tracker

Description

Calculate students' course grades to rank courses in ascending/descending order by a specified method.

Usage

rank_courses(
  courses,
  grades,
  method = c("mean", "1st-quantile", "median", "3rd-quantile"),
  descending = TRUE
)

Arguments

courses	A dataframe containing component weights for each course
grades	A dataframe containing grades for students
method	one of "method", "median", "lst-quantile", "3rd-quantile", defining the method for calculating the course rankings.
descending	A logical value to decide if the rank should be in descending or ascending order. Default to True

Value

A dataframe containing the rank for specified courses
