Java Program to Find Average of all Array Elements

  • How to find average of N numbers stored in an array.
  • Write a program in Java to find average of all array elements.

Given an array of integers of size N, we have to find the average of all array elements.

Input Array
3 5 3 8 1
Average = 4

Algorithm to find average of all array elements
Let inputArray is an integer array having N elements.

  • Declare an integer variable ‘sum’ and initialize it to 0. We will use ‘sum’ variable to store total sum of elements of array.
  • Using for loop, we will traverse inputArray from array from index 0 to N-1.
  • For any index i (0<= i <= N-1), add the value of element at index i to sum.
    sum = sum + inputArray[i];
  • After termination of for loop, sum will contain the total sum of all array elements.
  • Now calculate average as : Average = sum/N;

Java program to find average of all array elements

package com.tcc.java.programs;
 
import java.util.*;
 
public class ArrayElementsAverage {
    public static void main(String args[]) {
        int count, sum = 0, i;
        int[] inputArray = new int[500];
  
        Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in);
 
        System.out.println("Enter number of elements");
        count = in.nextInt();
        System.out.println("Enter " + count + " elements");
         
        for(i = 0; i < count; i++) {
            inputArray[i] = in.nextInt();
            sum = sum + inputArray[i];
        }
        
        System.out.println("Average : " + (double)sum/count);
    }
}

Output

Enter number of elements
5
Enter 5 elements
5 5 5 5 5
Average : 5.0

Enter number of elements
6
Enter 6 elements
1 2 3 4 5 6
Average : 3.5
