Hi dude man

Welcome to Javaranch. Please read The JavaRanch Naming Policy and change your display name. You can change it here. Thanks.

Regarding your question, we won't write the code for you and deprive you of a learning experience, but if you tell us what you've done, we can give you some hints on how to proceed.

Also, I'm moving this to the Java in General(beginner) forum.

well, i'll give "dude man" (or whatever he is called now ) a start:

which is not so great. probably what is wanted is an interactive program - it runs, and waits for floats to be entered and return to be pressed till something ("q" or "Q") is entered at which point it kicks back the average. anything not a float but still a number is accepted. anything not a number is rejected. would like to see that myself

Not at all! I told you guys to use JavaRanch as a resource.
