More changes to 0.8.2

Well, thanks to bug reports from users and reviewing more of the code, I discovered two very problematic bugs and have fixed them. First, the program crashed when creating a class with one semester and one marking period at the time when students are added to the class. This problem was caused by a bug in the code that kept the number of marking periods constant at four for students. This now fixed and a user can create a class with one semester and one marking period.

The second bug is almost embarrassing. I simply failed to complete the code for adding and editing attendance codes. This feature is now complete. The updated changelog for upcoming version 0.8.2 is included here:
