Question

I need to preface this with I am not allowed to use an IDE in class, I must use TextPad to compile and run.

I am getting the following errors:

F:\Java\Lab 3\AveragesLab.java:63: error: class, interface, or enum expected

                  ^

Code

import java.util.Scanner;

public class AveragesLab
{
 public static void main (String[] args)
  {

    // Create a scanner
    Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);

    // Receive the integer values
    System.out.print ("In this exercise you will be asked to enter a series of 10 numbers, twice.\n The first set will be integers or whole numbers and the second set will be doubles or \n numbers with a decimal. Please press the enter key after each number.\n");
    System.out.print ("Enter 10 integers or whole numbers, for example 75: ");

        // Create the integer array
        int arrayInt [] = new int [10];
        for (int i = 0; i < arrayInt.length; i++)
        {
            arrayInt [i] = input.nextInt();
        }
        int averageInt = average (arrayInt);

        System.out.println ("\nThe average of the intger array is: "+averageInt);
        System.out.println ();
        System.out.println ();


        // Receive the double values
        System.out.println ("Enter 10 double amounts including decimals, for example 75.5: ");

        // Create the double array
        double arrayDbl [] = new double [10];
        for(int i = 0; i < arrayDbl.length; i++)
        {
            arrayDbl [i] = input.nextDouble();
        }
        double average = averageDbl (arrayDbl);
        System.out.printf ("%7.2f\nThe average of the doubles array is: "+average);
        System.out.println ();
        System.out.println ();
    }


    public static int average (int [] array)
      {
        int sum = 0;
        int average = 0;
        for (int i = 0; i < array.length; i++)
      {
        sum = sum + array [i];
      }
      average = sum / array.length;
      return average;
      }
    }

The error is below this line

    public static double averageDbl (double [] arrayDbl)
    {
    double sum = 0.0;
    double average = 0.0;

    for(int i = 0; i < array.length; i++)
    {
        sum = sum + array [i];
    }
    average = sum / array.length;
    return average;
    }

}

Answer 1

There is a closing } too much before public static double averageDbl. I saw that average had one too much.

With that the class is closed, and the compiler expects another class/interface.
