The program should read in student names and quiz/mid-term/final exam scores, calculate the total score, and display the student's record including their name, scores, and final grade. It involves defining a class for the student record with instance variables for first name, last name, quizzes, mid-term, final, total score, and final letter grade. The class should have constructor methods, input method, and methods to compute overall numeric marks and final letter grade.
