The document provides a Java program that calculates the average of floating-point numbers stored in an array. It demonstrates the use of a for-each loop to sum the elements and then computes the average by dividing the sum by the total count of elements. The result is printed with two decimal points using the format() function.

Java Program to Calculate Average

Using Arrays
To understand this example, you should have the knowledge of the following Java
programming topics:

Java Arrays

Java for-each Loop

Example: Program to Calculate Average Using Arrays

public class Average {

public static void main(String[] args) {


double[] numArray = { 45.3, 67.5, -45.6, 20.34, 33.0, 45.6 };
double sum = 0.0;

for (double num: numArray) {


sum += num;
}

double average = sum / numArray.length;


System.out.format("The average is: %.2f", average);
}
}

Output

The average is: 27.69

In the above program, the numArray stores the floating-point values whose average
is to be found.

Then, to calculate the average , we need to first calculate the sum of all elements in
the array. This is done using a for-each loop in Java.

Finally, we calculate the average by the formula:

average = sum of numbers / total count

In this case, the total count is given by numArray.length .

Finally, we print the average using format() function so that we limit the decimal
points to only 2 using "%.2f"
