+# ab 00: Average Numbers
+
+# We're going to average a list of numbers. Start with the following list, iterate through it, keeping a 'running sum', then divide that sum by the number of elements in that list. Remember len will give you the length of a list.
+
+# The code below shows how to loop through an array, and prints the elements one at a time.
+
+# nums = [5, 0, 8, 3, 4, 1, 6]
+# runningSum = 0
+
+# # loop over the elements
+# for num in nums:
+#     runningSum += num
+#     # print(runningSum)
+
+# avgNum = runningSum / len(nums)
+# print(avgNum)
+
+
+
+    
+# # Version 2
+
+# # Ask the user to enter the numbers one at a time, putting them into a list. If the user enters 'done', then calculate and display the average. The following code demonstrates how to add an element to the end of a list.
