total in loops

Posted by Ally Wood on August 01, 2000 at 2:07 AM

In my loop I want to add the integers from my array up, the compiler says that sum is an undefined
variable. However if I Put in -- int sum = 0 then I'm not getting the sum of these integers only the last
integer at the end of the loop. How can I get around this?? From Ally Wood redally@iname.com

(new InputStreamReader (System.in)) ;

for (int no = 0 ; no < numbers.length; no++) {
System.out.println(" Enter the integer " + (no+1)) ;
System.out.print(no + 1) ;
System.out.print(":") ;
numbers[no] = Integer.parseInt(stdin.readLine( ) ) ;
sum += numbers[no]; } // can't define varible sum
if (no == numbers.length - 1)
System.out.println("The Sum is: " + sum) ;

}
My code is (Above) is trying to add integers from an array to
sum. However the compiler says sum varible is not declared.
If I add-- int sum = 0 --I'm not getting all the integers only the last. if I just add--int sum--it says it is not initialised.How can I around this?
