Generic class confusion

Well, I got an assignment due this morning, so i guess ill end up turning it in a day late eh. anyways. I have a couple problems that I don't know what to do with. the objective is here:

Write a generic class, MyStatisticsClass, with a type parameter T where T is a numeric object type (e.g., Integer, Double, or any class that extends java.lang.Number). Add a method named standardDeviation that takes an ArrayList of type T and returns as a double the standard deviation of the values in the ArrayList. Use the doubleValue( ) method in the Number class to retrieve the value of each number as a double. The standard deviation of a list of numbers n1, n2, ..., nm is defined as the square root of the average of the following numbers:
(n1 - a)2, (n2 - a)2, ..., (nm - a)2, where a is the average of the numbers n1, n2, ..., nm.

and here's my program that i've written, and i have no idea if i'm even close.

import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.Scanner;

public class MyStatisticsClass<T>
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
ArrayList<Integer> myList1 = new ArrayList<Integer>();
ArrayList<Double> myList2 = new ArrayList<Double>();
ArrayList<Double> myList3 = new ArrayList<Double>();

// Test to see if it works
Scanner scan = new Scanner(System.in);
for(int i=0; i<5; i++);
{
myList1.add(scan.nextInt());
}
for(double j=0; j<5; j++)
{
myList2.add(j+(j+0.5));
}
for(double k=0; k<5; k++)
{
myList3.add(k+(k+0.1));
}


double a1 = standardDeviation(myList1);
double a2 = standardDeviation(myList2);
double a3 = standardDeviation(myList3);
}

// Standard Deviation method
public double standardDeviation(ArrayList<T> list)
{
double sum1=0;
double sum2=0;
double preSum=0;
double deviation=0;

// collect the sum of all the numbers in the list
for(int i=0;i<list.size();i++)
{
T temp = list.get(i);
sum1 += temp.doubleValue();
}

double average1=sum1/list.size(); // average all of the first sum

// collect the sum of the numbers - the average all squared
for(int j=0;j<list.size();j++)
{
T temp = list.get(j);
preSum = temp.doubleValue()-average1;
sum2+= preSum*preSum;
}

double average2=sum2/list.size(); // average the second sum
return average2; // return the standard deviation as a double.
}
}

and, here's the errors, as recieved from jgrasp v1.8 and jdk 6:

Sorry for such a ginormous post, please any and all help, any question as to whats goin on just ask, its a pretty simple program, so it should be mostly self explanitory, thanks for the help in advance.
