Means

The arithmetic mean of an array of f64 numbers can be computed as follows:

def mean [n] (vs: [n]f64) =
  f64.sum vs / f64.i64 n

> mean [1.0,2.0,3.0,4.0]

2.5f64

The geometric mean is likewise simple:

def gmean [n] (xs: [n]f64) =
  f64.product xs ** (1/f64.i64 n)

> gmean [1.0,2.0,3.0,4.0]
