One assumes you are talking about school, but regardless, you need to be able to explain your goal before you can code it.

For example, do you know how to manually calculate a weighted GPA?  Do you know how your school does the weighting (.5 point, full point, etc)?
This link has a good overview of the process/steps you probably need to work through.
