Why doesn't my “While Loop” print the computation of finding the average “score”?

Question

I am writing a program that reads a sequence of positive integers input by the user. User will only enter one integer at a time.Then it will compute the average of those integer

Answer 1

In the loop:

while (integer != 0) {
    count = count + 1;  

    sum = sum + integer; 

    average = sum / count;
}

This will only stops when integer is 0, but this variable is not changing in the loop, so it will never be 0 if it wasn't already in the first place.

According to what you said you want to do, you should probably repeat the call to integer = input.nextInt(); inside your loop, lke this:

System.out.println("Please enter an integer: ");
integer = input.nextInt();

while (integer != 0) {

    count = count + 1;  
    sum = sum + integer; 

    System.out.println("Please enter an integer: ");
    integer = input.nextInt();
}

average = sum / count;

Also, as others have said, you only need to compute the average once after the loop, so I moved it too.
