what is the best way to write this program

[emeka malachy]

import java.util.Scanner;

public class Average{
	public static void main(String Bla[]){
		
		Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
		int total =0,grade,average,counter=0;
		
		while(counter < 10){
			grade = input.nextInt();
			counter++;
			
			total = total + grade;
		}
		average = total/10;
		System.out.println("The average of the the total is :" + average);
	}
}

how do i make the program print the numbers on his own and then give me average, instead of me typing the number by my self, i have tried all i know but cant get the average after printing the numbers. assist me please
am still novice

Please don't declare more than one variable per line. Please have a look at our suggestions about formatting, which make the code much easier to read. Thank you for using code tags, but you had them in the wrong place and I have corrected them.

If you want to print each number, or a total, you can add lines to print them all. I suggest you use total / counter rather than writing 10.
I am not sure I understand what you said about typing the numbers. You can read numbers from a file, which you will find about in the Java Tutorials.

I really don't understand what you're asking. Can you please clarify?

What do you mean exactly? Once I enter 10 numbers, the average is correctly output.
