Question
Write a function called sumAndAverage. It should take in an array of numbers and return the sum and average of the array in that order. For example:
[s a] = sumAndAverage([3 2 3 2]) %should return 10 and 2.5
[s a] = sumAndAverage([5 -5 2 8 0]) %should return 10 and 2
[s a] = sumAndAverage([]) %should return 0 and 0
You can use Built-in functions.
Create a vector, then invoke your function like this:
>>Arr=[3 2 3 2]
>>[s a]=sumAndAverage(Arr)
Note: the function has only one parameter. It is a vector
Explanation / Answer
def sumAndAverage(arr):
if len(arr) == 0:
return [0,0]
return [sum(arr), sum(arr)*1.0/len(arr)]
Arr = [3, 2, 3, 2]
[s, a] = sumAndAverage(Arr)
print "Sum = "+str(s)
print "Average = "+str(a)
