Average Value

Let's look at how to implement an algorithm for calculating the average value of elements in an array using Java.

We first use a loop to iterate through all the array elements and compute their total sum. Then we divide the total sum by the array’s length to get the arithmetic average:

public class AverageExample {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        double[] nums = {10.1, 11.2, 12.3, 13.4, 14.5};
        double result = 0;

        for (double d : nums) {
            result += d;
        }
        System.out.println("Average value: " + result / nums.length);
    }
}

This method works for any numeric array and provides a simple example of how to process arrays with loops in Java.

Calculating the average is a basic yet essential operation in many real-world scenarios such as statistical analysis, data processing, grading systems, and financial applications.

For large arrays or performance-critical applications, it's important to consider using Java Streams or parallel processing to optimize execution time.
