 ABSTRACT

A marks distribution system based on their marks is a method used by educational

institutions to assess the academic performance of students. The system typically involves
assigning numerical or letter grades to students based on their performance in various
assessments such as exams, quizzes, assignments, and projects.
The marks assigned to students serve as a measure of their academic achievement and
are used to evaluate their progress and proficiency in the course. The data collected from the
grading system can be used to provide feedback to students on their strengths and weaknesses,
identify areas where they need improvement, and help them to set goals for future performance.
However, the grading system has limitations, as it may not accurately reflect the overall
learning experience or account for factors such as attendance, class participation, and other
non-academic factors that can influence student performance. Moreover, a focus on grades may
encourage a competitive and high-stress environment, rather than a focus on learning and
personal growth.
In conclusion, while the grading system can be an effective tool for assessing student
academic performance, it should be complemented with other forms of evaluation, such as
feedback from instructors and peer evaluations. Institutions should aim to strike a balance
between academic rigor and promoting a supportive learning environment that encourages
student growth and development.

 INTRODUCTION

In today's fast-paced and competitive academic environment, evaluating student performance

is crucial to ensure that they are meeting the necessary standards and achieving their academic
goals. To achieve this, an effective marks distribution system based on their marks is essential.

This system will help teachers and administrators to assess a student's academic progress,
identify areas where they may be struggling, and provide them with the necessary support to
improve their performance. It will also help students to understand their strengths and
weaknesses, set realistic academic goals, and track their progress towards achieving them.

The marks distribution system will involve a thorough analysis of their academic performance,
including their test scores, class participation, homework completion, and other relevant
factors. This information will be used to provide students with a comprehensive evaluation
report that highlights their strengths and weaknesses, areas for improvement, and
recommendations for enhancing their academic performance.

The introduction of this system will not only benefit students but also educators and parents.
Teachers will be able to identify students who may require additional support and provide them
with the necessary resources to succeed. Parents will receive regular feedback on their child's
academic progress, enabling them to play a more active role in their education.

Overall, the introduction of a marks distribution system based on their marks will be a
significant step towards improving academic standards, enhancing student performance, and
ensuring that they are well-prepared for the challenges of the future.

 CONCEPTS USED

Apex programming
Apex is a strongly typed, object-oriented programming language used to develop
applications and automate business processes on the Salesforce platform. It is similar to
Java and is designed to run on the Salesforce Lightning platform, which is a cloud-based
application development platform.
Here are some key features of Apex programming:
o Object-oriented programming: Apex supports object-oriented programming
concepts such as encapsulation, inheritance, and polymorphism.
o Strongly typed: Apex is a strongly typed language, which means that all variables
must be declared before they can be used.
o Integrated with Salesforce: Apex is tightly integrated with the Salesforce platform,
allowing developers to write code that interacts with Salesforce data and objects.
o Multitenant architecture: Salesforce has a multitenant architecture, which means
that multiple organizations can use the same infrastructure. Apex is designed to run
in this type of environment, allowing developers to build applications that can be
shared among multiple organizations.
o Robust security: Apex has built-in security features, such as sharing rules and
object-level permissions, to ensure that data is kept secure.
o SOQL: Apex uses Salesforce Object Query Language (SOQL) to query Salesforce
data and records.
o Triggers: Apex triggers allow developers to write code that executes when a specific
event occurs, such as when a record is created, updated, or deleted.
o Batch processing: Apex supports batch processing, which allows developers to
process large amounts of data in chunks.
o Web services: Apex allows developers to build web services that can be consumed
by other applications.
Overall, Apex is a powerful programming language that is specifically designed for the
Salesforce platform. With its object-oriented approach and tight integration with
Salesforce, it provides developers with the tools they need to build sophisticated
applications and automate business processes.
