I have an assignment for my cps class in which we have to create a program that will import a file from a server that has a bunch of numbers in it. The program is suppose to take those numbers, sort them, give the minimum and maximum value, average, median, and print the data. But when I compile it, it states that "java:12: error: unreported exception FileNotFoundException; must be caught or declared to be thrown". What does it mean???

public static void main(String[]args)
{
double num[]=new double[1000];
int n;
double average,median;
n=getdata(num);
sortdata(num,n);
average=getAverage(num,n);
median=getMedian(num,n);
printdata(num,n,average,median);
}
public static void printdata(double num[],int n,double average,double median)
{
int i;
System.out.print("The sorted numbers are");
for(i=0;i<n;i++)
{if(i ==0)
System.out.println();
System.out.print(num[i]+"\t");
}
System.out.println();
System.out.println("Range: ["+num[0]+", "+num[n-1]+"]");
System.out.println("Average: "+average);
System.out.println("Median: "+median);
}
