Exercise 3: Calculate the Student's Total Marks

In this exercise, you have to calculate a student's total marks using the concept of prototypes in constructor functions.

Problem Statement

A constructor function called Student is given with the following parameters:

  • marks1
  • marks2

Important Note: Both marks1 and marks2 should be assigned to protected variables, _marks1 and _marks2, during initialization.

Next, you have to define the following methods such that they can be shared by all object instances created:

  • getMarks(markNumber): a method which should return _marks1 if markNumber equals 1 and _marks2 if markNumber equals 2.

  • calcTotal(): the method should return the sum of _marks1 and _marks2.
