Hi I am not able to solve the challenge task 1 for for loops. Can someone help please?

I have tried to many ways to return the average length but nothing is working.

FrogStats.cs 
namespace Treehouse.CodeChallenges
{
    class FrogStats
    {
        public static double GetAverageTongueLength(Frog[] frogs)
        {   

            for(int i=0;i<frogs.Length;i++)
            {
            Frog f= new Frog(frogs[i]);
             return f;
            }
        }
    }
}
Frog.cs 
namespace Treehouse.CodeChallenges
{
    public class Frog
    {
        public int TongueLength { get; }

        public Frog(int tongueLength)
        {
            TongueLength = tongueLength;
        }
    }
}

Maybe these hints will help:

  • the Frog constructor takes a length, not another frog
  • you wont need to make new frogs to calculate the average length
  • you might want to establish a variable to hold a total
  • inside the loop, you might add the current frog's tongue length (not the frog itself) to the total
  • after the loop finishes, you could divide the total by the number of frogs to get the average
  • return the result of the final calculation
