    <p>Hello stackoverflow community. Currently I'm new to java and I'm trying to figure out how to module program. For whatever reason when I return the variable averageScore, it gives me an error for that variable in the main method. Any help would be appreciated.</p> <pre><code>public class Program4 { public static void main(String[ ] args) { EasyReader console = new EasyReader(); //Connect to EasyReader.class System.out.print("Enter the score from game 1: "); double score1 = console.readDouble(); //Reads the user input for game 1 System.out.print("Enter the score from game 2: "); double score2 = console.readDouble(); //Reads the user input for game 2 System.out.print("Enter the score from game 3: "); double score3 = console.readDouble(); //Reads the user input for game 3 average(score1, score2, score3); displayScores(score1, score2, score3, averageScore); } public static void average(double score1, double score2, double score3) { double averageScore = ((double)score1+score2+score3)/3; //Divides miles by gallons getAverage(); } public static double getAverage() { return new averageScore; } public static void displayScores(double score1, double score2, double score3, double averageScore) { System.out.println("Game 1 Score: " + score1 + " points"); //Prints score 1 System.out.println("Game 2 Score: " + score2 + " points"); //Prints score 2 System.out.println("Game 3 Score: " + score3 + " points"); //Prints score 3 System.out.println("Average score: " + RoundDouble.roundDouble(averageScore, 2) + " points "); //Prints the average score and rounds it to 2 decimals } } </code></pre>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
