This page contains the Standard R code for Calculation - Average Each Column, and can be used to compute the average of each column in a table.
Example
Consider the following table of raw data where each row shows the number of times a respondent ate at a particular restaurant in the previous month.
To compute the average number of times each restaurant was eaten at in the past month, select the input table and run this feature from the toolbar via Automate > Browse Online Library > Calculation > Average Each Column. The output is
Options
Input The table to be used in the calculation.
Calculate for inputs with incomplete data If this option is checked, than any missing values the input will be ignored in the calculation. If unchecked, then missing values are not removed before calculation and will propagate as missing values in the output.
Rows to include This listbox shows all row labels in the input. The calculation will not performed for any rows whose labels are unselected here and they will not be shown in the output. By default the "SUM" and "NET" rows and columns are not shown in the output.
Columns to include As above, but for columns; any column labels unselected here will not be included in the output.
