    text
    copied!<p>I have a project about java which wants me from to writing a console program that reads in a list of number scores on one line, separated by spaces, discards the highest and lowest numbers, then calculates the arithmetic mean of the remainder.</p> <p>I have problems about how to make a array-list of number to calculate he arithmetic mean.</p> <p>These are the codes : </p> <p>Actually these codes are working in Java Applet and Java Application but I can take the numbers with scanner method but I couldn't find a solving way to make a list for the numbers.</p> <pre><code>public static void main(String[] args) { /* * For data input. */ Scanner kb = new Scanner(System.in); /* * Declare an array to store the judge's scores. */ double[] scores = new double[8]; /* * Declare variables for lowest and highest scores. */ double lowestScore = Integer.MAX_VALUE; double highestScore = Integer.MIN_VALUE; /* * Read 7 judge's scores. */ for (int i = 0; i &lt; 7; i++) { System.out.println(String.format("Judge Score #%d: ", i + 1)); scores[i] = kb.nextDouble(); /* * Compare the current score with the lowest and the highest scores. */ if (scores[i] &lt; lowestScore) { lowestScore = scores[i]; } if (scores[i] &gt; highestScore) { highestScore = scores[i]; } } /* * Sum the scores, except the lowest and the highest scores. */ double total = 0.00; for (int i = 0; i &lt; 7; i++) { if (scores[i] != lowestScore &amp;&amp; scores[i] != highestScore) { total = total + scores[i]; } } /* * Display the output. */ DecimalFormat df = new DecimalFormat("0.00"); System.out.println("Total points received: " + df.format(total)); System.out.println("Arithmetic Mean : " + df.format(total / 7)); } </code></pre> <p>Does anyone has another ideas about my question ?</p>
