Question

I am using while loop in this programe and it seems that it is not reading the code within the while loop. ANy ideas?

import java.util.Arrays;
import java.util.Scanner;

public class MytestArray {
   public static void main(String[] args) {
      Scanner scanner = new Scanner(System.in);
      int sum =0, average =0, count=1;
      char responseChar;
      String response;
     
      int[] smallArray = new int[10];
      
      for (int i = 0; i < smallArray.length; i++)
      {
     
       System.out.println("Enter a floating numbers: ");
         smallArray[i] = scanner.nextInt();
        
         scanner.nextLine(); // to get and discard the nextline token
         System.out.println("Do you want to continue? y or n?");
         response = scanner.nextLine();
         responseChar = response.charAt(0);
   
     while(responseChar =='y');
       {
        System.out.println("Enter a floating number: ");
        smallArray[i] = scanner.nextInt();
       
        scanner.nextLine(); // to get and discard the nextline token
        System.out.println("Do you want to continuer? y or n?");
       
        response = scanner.nextLine();
        responseChar = response.charAt(0);
       
         count ++;
     }
         sum += smallArray[i];
         average = sum/count;
   }
     
     
      System.out.println("You have entered: ");
      System.out.println(Arrays.toString(smallArray));
      System.out.println("Your sum is: " +sum);
      System.out.println(" Your average is: " +average);
   }
}

Explanation / Answer

// code works - run it.

import java.util.Arrays;
import java.util.Scanner;


public class MytestArray {
   public static void main(String[] args) {
      Scanner scanner = new Scanner(System.in);
      float sum = 0.0f, average = 0.0f;
      String response;
      int i = 0;
      float[] smallArray = new float[10];

  
       do
       {
        System.out.println("Enter a floating number: ");
        smallArray[i] = scanner.nextFloat();
       
        scanner.nextLine(); // to get and discard the nextline token
       
        System.out.println("Do you want to continue ? y or n?");
        response = scanner.nextLine();
        sum += smallArray[i];
      
        i++;
       
       }while(response.equals("y"));
      
         average = sum/i;
    
    
      System.out.println("You have entered: ");
      System.out.println(Arrays.toString(smallArray));
      System.out.println("Your sum is: " + sum);
      System.out.println(" Your average is: " + average);
   }
}
