Coding Problem

Hey all, I'm super new to programming, and have a project where I have to write a program that outputs the students names, along with two grades for each student, the average of those grades, then the average of the averages at the end. Finally, I have to have an output at the end that depends on what the total average was (if, then). The following is the code that I have so far, however I'm not supposed to "hard code" the grades as I've done, they're supposed to be entered as the program is run (which I can't figure out how to do). Could anyone help me figure out how to do this? I don't need a code written up doing my work for me, but an example would be an extremely huge help!

public class Project1 {
public static void main(String args[])
{
String s = "Student" + " " + "Names" + " " + "Score 1" + " " + "Score 2" + " " + "Average";
System.out.println(s);
String a = "Samuel" + " " + "Student" + " " + "100" + " " + "100" + " " + "100";
System.out.println(a);
String b = "Lindsay" + " " + "Student" + " " + "90" + " " + "86" + " " + "88";
System.out.println(b);
String c = "Chris" + " " + "Student" + " " + "52" + " " + "58" + " " + "55";
System.out.println(c);
}

}

This is what it's supposed to look like. (hope the link works...)

Hey BohmfalkCW,

The reason it is not encouraged to "Hard Code" through the assignment is because each individual may have different data/names, based on real life applications. This leads into User Input. Hopefully this video will give you an idea of how to begin. There are a plentiful amount of resources out there on the web. Make use of em!

Java - 6 - Getting User Input

use JOptionPane or Scanner for input. I found Scanner to be more useful.
