We Keep Coding

How do I calculate the average of an array of objects where the objects contain string and integer variables?

This is the code I have currently.
Below is my object "Student"
`public class Student {
private String name;
private int score;
public Student() {
}
public Student(String name, int score){
this.name = name;
this.score = score;
}
public void setName(String name) {
this.name = name;
}
public void setScore(int score) {
this.score = score;
}
public void readInput() {
Scanner keyboard = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.println("Please enter the student's name: ");
this.name = keyboard.next();
System.out.println("Please enter the student's score: ");
this.score = keyboard.nextInt();
}
public void writeOutput() {
System.out.println("The student's name and score: " + name + ", " + score + "%");
}
public String getName(String name) {
return this.name;
}
public int getScore(int score) {
return score;
}
}`
Then in another class "TestReporter" I am attempting to compute the averageof the array of ourClass[] .
I am also to find the highest score within the ourClass array but don't know how to seperate scores from students , I probably overcomplicated the question but any help would be appreciated.
`import java.lang.reflect.Array;
import java.util.Arrays;
import java.util.Scanner;
public class TestReporter {
private int highestScore;
private double averageScore;
private Student[] ourClass;
private int numOfStudents;
public TestReporter(){
}
public void getData() {
Scanner keyboard = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.println("Please enter the number of students");
numOfStudents = keyboard.nextInt();
ourClass = new Student[numOfStudents];
for (int i = 0; i < numOfStudents ; i++) {
ourClass[i] = new Student();
ourClass[i].readInput();
}
}
public void computeStats() {
double total = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < numOfStudents; i++) {
total = total + ourClass[i];
}
averageScore = total / ourClass.length;
}
public void displayResults() {
for (Student Student: ourClass) {
Student.writeOutput();
}
}
}`

To get Highest Score declare variable in compute StateStats
public void computeStats() {
double total = 0;
int highestScore = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < numOfStudents; i++) {
int score = ourClass[i].getScore();
total = total;
if(score > highestScore)
highestScore = score;
}
averageScore = total / ourClass.length;
System.output.println("Average Score = "+averageScore;
System.output.println("Highest Score = " highestScore;
}
then add following to displayResults()
computeStats();
Also:
change Setters as mentioned by {QBrute}

Private Setter saying setter method is "not used"

I'm writing a program that takes user input for employees. I have some private setters (they have to be private according to the UML) but the method names are underlined grey. I've tried making getters or doing this.variableName to get rid of them, but to be honest I don't have much experience with private setters so I'm unsure of what to do. Also there is no getters for some variables and no default constructor as shown in the UML.
UML:
and here's my code
public class Employee_Kubik {
//variables
private static String name;
private double salary;
private int yearsWith;
private double sales;
public Employee_Kubik(String n, double sala, int y, double sale){
name = n;
salary = sala;
yearsWith = y;
sales = sale;
} //Employee end
public String getName(){
return name;
} //getName end
private void setSalary(double s){
if (s > 0){
salary = s;
} //if end
else{
salary = 0;
} //else end
} //setSalary end
private void setYearsWith(int yw){
if (yw > 0){
yearsWith = yw;
} //if end
else{
yearsWith = 0;
} //else end
} //setYearsWith
private void setSales(double s){
if(s > 0){
sales = s;
} //if end
else{
sales = 0;
} //else end
} //setSales end
public boolean promote(){
if(sales > 9999 && yearsWith > 2){
return true;
} //if end
else{
return false;
} //else end
} //promote end
public double calculateRaise(){
salary = salary * 0.05;
return salary;
} //calculateRaise end
#Override
public String toString(){
return "Employee Name: " +
name +
", has been with the company for " +
yearsWith +
" years and last year sold a total of $" +
sales +
"\nPromotion Status = " +
promote();
} //toString end
} //class end

One place that you can use them in, is your constructor:
public Employee_Kubik(String n, double sala, int y, double sale){
name = n;
setSalary(sala);
setSales(sale);
setYearsWith(y);
}

My program won't invoke my methods

I've only just begun programming, and I find most of my resources to be incredibly unhelpful. Hopefully you guys can help!
My program runs until it gets to the display methods, and then it just stops. No errors, and no build successful. It just continues with the user input. Any ideas?
Here is all of the program. I created a separate class for the object as well. Let me know if you think the problem could be there. Thanks!

while loop accumulator in java

I am trying to make a GPA calculator using a while loop with an unknown set of entries. When only one set of information is entered, my program runs fine. If I enter information for more than one class, the totals do not update and I cannot figure out why. Any ideas?

Private double computational error [duplicate]

This question already has answers here:
Why does this Java division print out zero? [duplicate]

Closed 7 years ago.
I am having problem with my getGPA() method it will only return a 0.00 value. I need for the function to calculate the GPA by dividing totalgradepoints by numberofclasses. I've tried everything and have no idea what the problem is. I am a complete beginner and trying to learn as I go this is for a class assignment so this is what we were instructed by our professor. I appreciate any advice on this thank you everyone.

Please read how integer division works. if the numerator is less than the denominator, the result is zero. Make the numerator a double by casting.
Change this:
gpa = totalgradepoints / numberofclasses;
to this:
gpa = (double) totalgradepoints / numberofclasses;
