new to java, school assignment

[Limens]

Write code for the method double avarage (double g[]) in a class by the name EarthAcceleration so the mean of gValues[] = {9.80, 9.85, 9.82, 9.86, 9.78} calculates.

This is what's given to me already, but how do I proceed ;/?

public class EarthAcceleration
{
   public EarthAcceleration()
   {
   }

   public double average(double g[])
   {
   }

}

note that I'm working in BlueJ

How would you find the average without a computer? Express that systematically and convert it into code.

You have to make the array first, before you even want to think about getting the mean for the array.

... gValues[] = {9.80, 9.85, 9.82, 9.86, 9.78} ...

Sure looks like an array assignment to me.
