is it a list
are the numbers in a list
or are they separate variables
it wasnt specific about that
did you have lists or arrays before
or no
no Im current;y restarting from scratch and have no idea what im doing
ok lets just do normal variables then
do you know how to make a variable
uhhh i might idk I just started this class for college
do you know how to run a java program
like the main
class
I think so
currently it doesnt work on the school computers
have you ever seen this
yes
ok so its like very beginner stage java yes
that u have rn
yes
ok then declare 4 int variables
and send the code here
etc
ok so I just put that down 4 teams in between the brackets
that would make it an array
like
yeah
so which option do you want
or what i sent earlier
this one
then make 4 numbers
and paste the code here
\
like that?
now what?
now
we sum it up
š
so do
`
and so on
got it
no
above the bracket
}
do you want the numbers to have decimals like 10.1 or no
well were trying to find the average so yeah
ok
also add the semicolon at the end of the sum line
and paste code
semicolomn added
show code
remove the space
between number4 and semicolon
done
now swap all int to double
and add
and after that
ok
keep in mind the results might return some crazy numbers like
you do
1.1 as for all numbers
it might return something like 1.09999999999999999999
but its normal for like beginner stuff
I dont care I want it to work
gave me this error when I tried runing it
send screenshot of your editor
i mean
the files on the lef
t
shwo me what I should be looking for
you are using visual studio code right
ye
screenshot it all
and send
u can hide stuff u dont wanna sohw
like ur name or something
ok so
you dont have a jdk
so its not gonna run
i would say click the download jdk and install automatically would be ok
however lets ask someone that has more help points than me lolololol
@dan1st | Daniel no jdk and its vs code so i have no clue how to set it up
whicnh ones?
also
first
whats youir file name
the one where you are writing this code
Algorithm
i suggest you put that file in some folder
and you have to name it with .java at the end
otherwise its not gonna run
both work though I would personally either use the second one (if you are ok with the newest version) or install one from Adoptium and then using the third option
(that's adoptium)
Also that's the Oracle extension lol
Do you know the time in my timezone?
of course
but you were typing
5 minutes ago
in general
looks like we wait
for it to load
show full screenshot
how did you run this
what if you right click on the code
is there some option to run it
You could either enable preview features
no
or use a full main class
