int []ovrallavg = new int [10];
for (int i = 0; i<10;i++){
ovrallavg [i] = ((Array [i][1]+ Array [i][2]+Array [i][3]+ Array [i][4])/4);
Arrays.sort (ovrallavg);
System.out.println(ovrallavg);
}

Can anyone tell me what the problem is?

[Ultrahex]

you are printing out the reference pointer to the array, by doing:

System.out.println (ovrallavg);

you are saying print out the reference pointer of the array. which it is doing!

Well i am supposed to print the average fro lowest to highest but i cant seem to figure out how to. here is the entire program.

I imagine you'd want to actually output the element of the array you just figured out the average for...

Java:

for ( int i = 0; i < 10; i++ ) {     ovrallavg [i] = //calculate averages for each element of the array } Arrays.sort (ovrallavg); for ( int i = 0; i < 10; i++ ) {     System.out.println (ovrallavg [i]); }

Still does not seem to work:

Quote:

case 4:
int []overallavg = new int [10];
for (int i = 0; i<overallavg.length;i++){
overallavg [i] = ((Array [i][1]+ Array [i][2]+Array [i][3]+ Array [i][4])/4);
Arrays.sort (overallavg);
for ( int j = 0; i < 10; i++ ) {
System.out.println(" " + overallavg[i]);
}
}
break;

nevermind i got it. thanks to all
