When i run my program and choose a number between 0 and 100, it prints my answer wrong.
Java console
----jGRASP exec: java TestScores How many tests do you have? 3 Enter grade for Test 1: 80 Enter grade for Test 2: 80 Enter grade for Test 3: 80 The average is: 26.666666666666668The average is: 53.333333333333336The average is: 80.0 ----jGRASP: operation complete.
import java.util.Scanner;
public class TestScores {
public static void main(String[] args)
{
int numTests = 0;
double[] grade = new double[numTests];
double totGrades = 0;
double average;
int check = 1;
Scanner keyboard = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.print("How many tests do you have? ");
numTests = keyboard.nextInt();
grade = new double[(int) numTests];
for (int index = 0; index < grade.length; index++)
{
System.out.print("Enter grade for Test " + (index + 1) + ": ");
grade[index] = keyboard.nextDouble();
if (grade[index] < 0 || grade[index] > 100)
{
try
{
throw new InvalidTestScore();
}
catch (InvalidTestScore e)
{
e.printStackTrace();
}
break;
}
}
for (int index = 0; index < grade.length; index++) {
totGrades += grade[index];
average = totGrades / grade.length;
System.out.print("The average is: " + average);
}
}
}
public class InvalidTestScore extends Exception
{
public InvalidTestScore()
{
super(" Error: Enter a number between 0 and 100");
}
}
I move the statement which calculates the sum from inside the loop to the outside, that works.
My new code is.
import java.util.Scanner;
public class TestScores
{
public static void main(String[]args)
{
int numTests = 0;
double[] grade = new double[numTests];
double totGrades = 0;
double average;
int check = 1;
Scanner keyboard = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.print("How many tests do you have? ");
numTests = keyboard.nextInt();
grade = new double[(int) numTests];
for (int index = 0; index < grade.length; index++)
{
System.out.print("Enter grade for Test " + (index + 1) + ": ");
grade[index] = keyboard.nextDouble();
if (grade[index] < 0 || grade[index]> 100)
{
try
{
throw new InvalidTestScore();
}
catch (InvalidTestScore e)
{
e.printStackTrace();
}
break;
}
}
for (int index = 0; index < grade.length; index++)
{
totGrades += grade[index];
}
average = totGrades/grade.length;
System.out.print("The average is: " + average);
}
}
public class InvalidTestScore extends Exception { public InvalidTestScore() { super(" Error: Enter a number between 0 and 100"); } }
You can close my post.
