Loop for average

I am trying to write a loop script in bash thru umbuntu for the following:
ask for a password
if wrong show a message
if wright then asks for 3 numbers from you
then calculates the average of them
at the end it saves the average and the date of the calculation in a text file and then zips it.

I am totally lost if anyone can help it would be appreciated.

Thank you

This sounds, looks, smells and tastes like homework. As homework is forbidden in the normal part of the forum i close here.

Either give proof that this is not homework to the mod/admin of your choice (any team member can reopen this thread if this is the case) or open another thread in the "Homework/Coursework" Board.
