Title: Integer Array Average
Post by: MichaelPatriot21 on May 12, 2019, 08:46:00 PM

If I make an array of intergers, how would I go about getting an average and storing it in a global variable? I'm making a grand strategy game, each country has a reputation with your organization. So I want to make an array of all the North American countries' relationship with you and display the average relationship you have with North America.

Hi.
You can loop thru the array with 'Array get next' and add all the int's into a variable (call it 'Total' for example)

Then get the length of the array with 'Array Length'.

Then use a float operator and divide the Total by the array length. and store in a float variable.

Then if you wish you can use 'Convert Float To Int' and you can select the 'Rounding' you wish.
