Ex: If the input is: 2 3 4 8 11 the output is: 4 The maximum number of inputs for any test case should not exceed 9. If exceeded, output "Too many inputs". Hint: First read the data into a list. Then, based on the list's size, find the middle item.

The solution is given in the explanation section

Explanation:

//Import all needed classes

import java.util.ArrayList;

import java.util.List;

import java.util.Scanner;

public class num9 {

   public static void main(String[] args) {

       //Use scanner to receive user inputs

       Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in);

       //Create a list to store values entered by user

       List<Integer> list = new ArrayList<>();

       int n;

       //Use to loop to continously prompt and receive inputs

       //Break out of loop when a negative value is entered

       do {

           System.out.println("Enter Scores, Enter a negative number to breakout");

           n = in.nextInt();

           list.add(n);

       } while (n >= 0);

       //Remove the last value  (negative value to breakout of loop) entered to end the loop

       list.remove(list.size() - 1);

       //Check if user entered more than 9 values

       if (list.size() > 9) {

           System.out.println("Too many inputs");

       } else {

//Print the entire list            

for(int i:list){

               System.out.print(i+" ");

           }

//Find the middle item

           int indexMiddle = list.size()/2;

           System.out.println();

           System.out.println(list.get(indexMiddle));

       }

   }

}
