C# C# Objects Loops and Final Touches For Loops

how can I get the average,,using for loop?

namespace Treehouse.CodeChallenges //how can I get the average??? { class FrogStats { public static double GetAverageTongueLength(Frog[] frogs) { double toungue =0; for (int index = 0; index <frogs.Length; index ++) { Frog tongue= frogs[index]; //how can I get the average??? } return toungue.Average(); } } }

FrogStats.cs
namespace Treehouse.CodeChallenges  //how can I get the average???
{
    class FrogStats
    {
        public static double GetAverageTongueLength(Frog[] frogs)
        {
            double toungue =0;
            for (int index = 0; index <frogs.Length; index ++)
            {
               Frog tongue= frogs[index];
               //how can I get the average???
            }
            return toungue.Average();
        }
    }
}
Frog.cs
namespace Treehouse.CodeChallenges
{
    public class Frog
    {
        public int TongueLength { get; }

        public Frog(int tongueLength)
        {
            TongueLength = tongueLength;
        }
    }
}

You could use a loop to accumulate a sum.

After adding up all the lengths in the loop, you could then divide the accumulated sum by the number of frogs to get the average length.
