From the old fora's

I believe there wasn't made any decision yet... was there?

[Jim Kring]

Great idea! This one should definitely be pushed through the system.

Because Altenbach also wanted the VI to work for complex numbers... some reading material: http://faculty.sfasu...plexNumbers.PDF

Further... what about the geometric mean, harmonic mean, quadratic mean, weighted mean, truncated mean, midrange, http://en.wikipedia....i/Average#Types

Further I was thinking about the following... do we need to add point-to-point means? For each one of them?

Weighted Mean (1D).vi

Quadratic Mean (1D).vi

Generalized Mean (1D).vi

Harmonic Mean (1D).vi

Geometric Mean (1D).vi

Midrange (1D).vi

Any suggestions people?

Awesome: sounds like you're volunteering to help - contact jgcode and he can get you started.

Well that is the problem... I already did. But it is in others opinion that only after discussions things can be implemented. And such when there is no discussion there is no implementation xD

Imo when you ask me there should be a different protocol. Just post a candidate, if no one objects just implement it. If there are any complaints after the new release we can always change things back.

Sorry Wouter, don't have time lately to follow up on LAVA discussions.

I agree with Jim, they should definitely be pushed through the system.

If you can't implement them for OpenG ... maybe you should implement them anyway and share them with us ;-)
