The arithmetic mean function is implemented in two versions.
- Usage 1
avr(x)- x
- a scalar, vector or matrix
- Result 1
- The result is the arithmetic mean of all elements of x
- Usage 2
avr(x, flag)- x
- a matrix
- flag
- compute mean of the column vectors (flag=0) or the row vectors (flag≠0) is requsted; flag must be a scalar
- Result 2
-
- if flag=0: the result r is the vector of the column means
r[i] = eval avr( x[*,i], 0) // i = 0 .. ncol(x)-1
- otherwise: the result r is the vector of the row means
r[i] = eval avr( x[i,*], 1) // i = 0 .. nrow(x)-1
