Exercise: Best students list
Implement makeBestStudentsList function to display the best 10 students, so they can get an internship. You should compare them by their result (higher is better). To get an internship, students need to have got at least 30 points in the semester and a result of at least 80. The best student gets 3000 and the next 6 get {internship size}”. Starting code:
fun List<Student>.makeBestStudentsList(): String = TODO()
data class Student(
val name: String,
val surname: String,
val result: Double,
val pointsInSemester: Int
)
This problem can either be solved in the below playground or you can clone kotlin-exercises project and solve it locally. In the project, you can find code template for this exercise in functional/collections/BestStudents.kt. You can find there starting code and unit tests.
Once you are done with the exercise, you can check your solution here.
