calcAverage function:
This is function that returns no value and accept no parameters. This function will do the following:
Ask the user to enter how many integers to enter. This has to be a positive integer and you need to validate that
Write a “for” loop to accept this many integers and write the needed logic to calculate the average of these numbers and print that out
Then the function will return back to the main function
No written by hand solution
IN JAVA - NEEDS DRIVER AND CLASS PROGRAM
Average Rainfall Write a program that uses nested loops to collect data and calculate the average rainfall over a period of years. The program should first ask for the number of years. The outer loop will iterate once for each year. The inner loop will iterate twelve times, once for each month. Each iteration of the inner loop will ask the user for the inches of rainfall for that month.
A variable that is used to mark the end of a sequence of values is known as a(n)a. accumulatorb. counterc. terminatord. sentinel

- Given a variable named count that contains an integer value, write a statement that displays the value of count .arrow_forwardWe use For loop instead of a while loop when we know exactly how many times you want to loop through a block of code. True Falsearrow_forwardThe Nim game. Write a program for a two-player version of the game Nim: a human player will play against the computer. The game is simple: players take turns removing from 1 to 4 sticks from a pile of 13 sticks; the player who picks up the last stick wins the game. Here’s some pseudocode for the Nim game. Start by initializing some variables that will allow you to keep track of the state of the game: One variable should record how many sticks there are left in the pile; initially, this variable must be initialized to 13. There are two players in the game, who take turns. To remember who’s turn is next, use a variable with two states (= values). Say the variable is 1 if the human player is next, and it is 2, if the computer’s turn is next. Pick randomly the player who should start the game. Then, start the main loop of the game: the game should continue for as long as there still are sticks (at least one) to pick. In each repetition of the game loop, one player will play their turn:…arrow_forward
- Using a Sentinel Value to Control a while Loop in Java Summary In this lab, you write a while loop that uses a sentinel value to control a loop in a Java program that has been provided. You also write the statements that make up the body of the loop. The source code file already contains the necessary variable declarations and output statements. Each theater patron enters a value from 0 to 4 indicating the number of stars the patron awards to the Guide’s featured movie of the week. The program executes continuously until the theater manager enters a negative number to quit. At the end of the program, you should display the average star rating for the movie. Instructions Ensure the file named MovieGuide.java is open. Write the while loop using a sentinel value to control the loop, and write the statements that make up the body of the loop to calculate the average star rating. Execute the program by clicking Run.

- Domino's Time Function Name: dominosTime() Parameters: N/A Returns: None Description: During the summer, you ordered a lot of food from Domino's. Pizzas are $12, an order of pasta is $6, and chicken wings are $8. Write a function that asks the user how many of each food item they would like, and then print a response telling them what their order to- tal will be. The order total should be an integer. >>> dominosTime() How many pizzas do you want? 3 How many orders of pasta do you want? 2 How many orders of chicken wings do you want? 2 By ordering 3 pizzas, 2 orders of pasta, and 2 orders of chicken wings, your order total comes to $64.arrow_forwardVariables declared but not initialized have the value of a.nullb.0c.undefinedd.emptyarrow_forwardprintTodaysDate is a function that accepts no parameters and returns no value.
