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
selects if the average of the column vectors (flag&eq;0) or the row vectors (flag≠0) is requsted; flag must be a scalar
Result 2
  • if flag equals 0: the result r is the vector of the column averages
r[i] = eval avr( x[*,i]) // i = 0 .. ncol(x)-1
  • otherwise: the result r is the vector of the row averages
r[i] = eval avr( x[i,*]) // i = 0 .. nrow(x)-1
