Question

Create a java class that calculates the various statistics of your favorite quarterback in NFL. If you don’t have one, you could use pick Matt Ryan of Atlanta Falcons from his 2015 season. Use either visit nfl.com or their team website for some of the data you would need to complete this assignment.

Implement the main method in the class and do the following in the main method

• Create an appropriate type of array (yards) to store a number of yards that the QB threw in each of the games they played last season. The length of the array would be set to the number of games he played. The score for game 1 would be in 0^th index position and so.
• Create another array (attempts) that has the same size as the earlier array which will store the number of throw attempts in each of the games. The number of attempts in game 1 would be in 0^th index position and so on.
• Create another array (attempts) that has the same size as the earlier array which will store the number of completions in each of the games. The number of completions in the game 1 would be in 0^th index position and so on.
• Use a for loop to calculate the total yards thrown in the entire season
• Use a for loop to calculate the number of games where the number of yards was over 275.
• Create a 3^rd array that will store the average number of yards per attempt. Use a for loop to populate this array.
• Use a for loop to print the average completion percentage for each of the games.
• Use a for loop to provide the highest yards thrown in a game during the season.

Java.

Values for the arrays are as follows:

Yards: 277,234,133,274,341,340,277,324,294,254,283,311,358,279,126,250

Throw attempts: 39,35,26,35,44,35,36,45,35,41,31,32,43,36,24,33

Completions: 26,24,14,23,34,24,25,29,22,21,20,24,27,25,13,24

Avg. Yards per attempt: 7.1,6.7,5.1,7.8,7.8,9.7,7.7,7.2,8.4,6.2,9.1,9.7,8.3,7.8,5.3,7.6

Answer 1

package Array;

// Defines a class NFLArray

public class NFLArray

{

// main method definition

public static void main(String[] args)

{

// Creates an array to store yards

int []yards = {277, 234, 133, 274, 341, 340, 277, 324, 294, 254, 283,

311, 358, 279, 126, 250};

// Creates an array to store throw attempts

int []throwAttempts = {39, 35, 26, 35, 44, 35, 36, 45, 35, 41, 31,

32, 43, 36, 24, 33};

// Creates an array to store completion

int [] completions = {26, 24, 14, 23, 34, 24, 25, 29, 22, 21, 20, 24,

27, 25, 13, 24};

// Create an array to store the average number of yards per attempt.

double avg[] = new double[yards.length];

// To store total yards

double total = 0;

// Counter to store number of yards was over 275.

int countOver = 0;

// To store highest yards

// Initially stores the starting yard as the highest yard

int highestYards = yards[0];

// Loops to calculate the total yards thrown in the entire season

// and to calculate the number of games where the number of

// yards was over 275.

// and calculates average

for(int i = 0; i < yards.length; i++)

{

// Calculates total

total += yards[i];

// Checks if current yards is greater than 275 then increase the counter by one

if(yards[i] > 275)

countOver++;

// Calculates average

avg[i] = yards[i] / (double)completions[i];

}// End of for loop

System.out.println("\n Number of games where the number of yards was over 275: "

+ countOver);

System.out.print("\n Average: ");

// Loops to print the average completion percentage for each of the games.

for(int i = 0; i < yards.length; i++)

System.out.printf("%.2f, ", avg[i]);

// Loops to get the highest yards thrown in a game during the season.

for(int i = 1; i < yards.length; i++)

// Checks if current yards is greater than earlier highest yard

if(yards[i] > highestYards)

// Update the highest yard by assigning current yard

highestYards = yards[i];

// Displays highest yard

System.out.print("\n Highest Yards thrown: " + highestYards);

}// End of main method

}// End of class

Sample Output:

Number of games where the number of yards was over 275: 10

Average: 10.65, 9.75, 9.50, 11.91, 10.03, 14.17, 11.08, 11.17, 13.36, 12.10, 14.15, 12.96, 13.26, 11.16, 9.69, 10.42,
Highest Yards thrown: 358
