/*
  Write a program which averages a sequence of percentage
  * marks input by the user.  The number of values input
   will vary from run to run.  This will be indicated 
   by an invalid mark being input.

import javax.swing.JOptionPane;

class Week6_2
{
    
public static void main(String[]args)
{
                    
                    int counter = 0;
                    int mark = 0;
                    while (mark != -1)
{                    
                        
                    String s = JOptionPane.showInputDialog("enter mark or type -1 to exit");
                    mark = Integer.parseInt(s);
                    counter = counter+1;
                    int sum = mark+counter;
                    int average = sum/counter;
                    
                    
}                   
                    
                    JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null,"average = "+ average);
                    
                    
    
    
    
 
    
    
}
}
