Package Exports

compute-midrange

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (compute-midrange) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

Mid-range

Computes the mid-range (mid-extreme) of a numeric array.

The mid-range, or mid-extreme, is the arithmetic mean of the maximum and minimum values in a data set. It is the midpoint of the range and a measure of central tendency.

Installation

$ npm install compute-midrange

For use in the browser, use browserify.

Usage

To use the module,

var midrange = require( 'compute-midrange' );

midrange( arr[, sorted] )

Computes the mid-range of a numeric array.

var unsorted = [ 8, 2, 3, 9, 5, 1, 4, 100, 7, 0, 6 ];

var midr = midrange( unsorted );
// returns 50

If the input array is already sorted in ascending order, set the optional second argument to true.

var sorted = [ 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 100 ];

var midr = midrange( sorted, true );
// returns 50

Notes

If the input array is empty, returns NaN.

Examples

var data = new Array( 100 );

for ( var i = 0; i < data.length; i++ ) {
    data[ i ] = Math.round( Math.random()*100 );
}

console.log( midrange( data ) );

To run the example code from the top-level application directory,

$ node ./examples/index.js

Tests

Unit

Unit tests use the Mocha test framework with Chai assertions. To run the tests, execute the following command in the top-level application directory:

$ make test

All new feature development should have corresponding unit tests to validate correct functionality.

Test Coverage

This repository uses Istanbul as its code coverage tool. To generate a test coverage report, execute the following command in the top-level application directory:

$ make test-cov

Istanbul creates a ./reports/coverage directory. To access an HTML version of the report,
