You mean (2+3+4)/3

[John D'Errico]

Why post the same question twice in a row? Post your question once.

Answer 1

[Azzi Abdelmalek]

A=[2 3 0 0 4]
sum(A)/nnz(A)

[abdul wahab aziz]

my question was that for this method shall we consider zero,s

[Image Analyst]

In your example, you did not include zeros so Azzi didn't either. However we don't know why the last non-zero column in "2+3+4/2" - the 4 only - was divided by 2. Why 2, and why divide only the 4 by some number and none of the other numbers????
