Compute Average Heights
This is a simple program to compute average heights. In a loop, it prompts the user for heights, inputs a text string and converts it to a ‘real’ number, sums them, and divides by the number of heights.

Later I’ll show you some much faster programs! The heart of this program is the iteration of z2+c where c is a point in the complex…
