Basically, I'm making a student records management system, and everything else works fine. But, the module for displaying students with grades greater/lesser than X results in some values being invisible/ replaced by nothing.
This code isolates two examples of the main issue, individual snippets of display and sort work fine, but combined together under these or similar conditions, they produce bugged out grade values.
