Mmm ! This question seems familiar ;) !!! Here's a very rough example:

    double sum = 0.0;

    for (int i = 0; i < MAX_ITERATIONS; i++)
    {
         ...
         sum += ...;
         ...
    }

    double average = sum / i;

    // Display the average, and whatever else ...
    // ...

You're likely to learn much more if you try to solve the problem yourself.

I hope this helps.
