I am trying to figure out how to do this averagewordLength function but I have no idea how to add the x from the double into my for loop.
this is what i have so far

 static double averageWordLength(ArrayList<String> text) {
     double x;
     for(int I = 0; I<text.size(); I++){

Clue

x += text.get(I).length();

What a double has to do with a length() function that counts the number of characters in a String ?
Seriously You think you can have a word with a length of 3.14159 unless, may be it is "PI" ???

Actually it's quite apt when you consider the other line of code (which i didn't supply)
