Average Array: Limit of Average Terms?

In summary, the conversation discusses the concept of a limit of an array and its average. It clarifies that "array" refers to a list of numbers and "average" can be either arithmetic or geometric. The "limit" is defined as the limit of the function (an) as n approaches infinity.

Is limit of an array average of its terms?

This is incomprehensible; what do you mean by the term "limit", is "average" arithmetic average, is "array" meant to denote an array of numbers like a vector or matrix?
 
  • #3
I would be willing to assume that "array" means just a list of numbers and that "average" is the mean or arithmetic average but I still have no idea what you mean by the "limit" of an array. The limit as what variable goes to what?

Sorry!
Suppose (an)=(a1, a2, ..., an) is a function from N+ to R ("array"), "average" can be both arithmetic and geometric, "limit" is the limit of this function while n->infinity.
 

FAQ: Average Array: Limit of Average Terms?

What is an average array?

An average array is a set of numerical values that are arranged in a specific order, typically in a horizontal or vertical line. The average of an array is the sum of all the values divided by the number of values in the array.

What is the limit of average terms?

The limit of average terms refers to the maximum number of values that can be included in an average array. This limit is usually set by the programmer or determined by the limitations of the programming language being used.

How is the average of an array calculated?

The average of an array is calculated by adding all the values in the array and then dividing the sum by the number of values in the array. This is represented by the formula: average = (sum of values) / (number of values).

Why is the limit of average terms important?

The limit of average terms is important because it determines the accuracy of the average value calculated from the array. If the array contains too few values, the average may not be a good representation of the data. On the other hand, if the array contains too many values, it may be computationally expensive and unnecessary.

Can the limit of average terms be changed?

Yes, the limit of average terms can be changed by the programmer if needed. However, it is important to consider the potential impact on accuracy and efficiency when changing this limit.
