Overview: This example demonstrates how you could average arrays as they are generated in a VI.
Description
This example demonstrates how you could average arrays as they are generated in a VI. This is similar to the Mean Pt. by Pt. VI which averages values as they are generated to a specific sample length, except this averages arrays generated/acquired to a specific number of arrays. For example, if the arrays generated for the first 3 iterations of the loop are [a1, b1, c1], [a2, b2, c2], [a3, b3, c3], and the length (number of arrays to average) chosen is 3, the reported average would be [(mean of a1, a2,a3) ; (mean of b1,b2,b3) ; (mean of c1,c2,c3)]. As there is currently no primitive function to do this, it could be very valuable for applications where the arrays themselves need to be averaged and not just the elements in an array.
Requirements: LabVIEW 2012 (or compatible), Hardware: none.
Steps to Implement or Execute Code:
1. Run the VI.
2. Arrays Generated increases.
3. Mean Array is recalculated.
