1,144 PointsReturn the average length of the tongues of the frogs in the array. Use a for loop as part of your solution.
Hello, Guys I need your help... I can't figure it out... I tried every thing... Can some one please send me the answer and explanation so I can learn from it?

1,144 PointsAre you returning the average length of the tongues of the frogs in the array?
public static double GetAverageTongueLength(Frog[] frogs)
{
int tongues = 0;
for(int i = 0; i < frogs.Length; i++)
{
tongues = frogs[i].TongueLength;
}
return tongues / frogs.Length;
}

- create a "for" loop that steps through the list of frogs
- for each frog, add the length of the tongue to a running total
- after the loop completes, divide the total by the number of frogs to get the average
- remember to return the average value
