Calculates the average of two or more numbers.
- Use `Array.prototype.reduce()` to add each value to an accumulator, initialized with a value of `0`.
- Divide the resulting array by its length.
```js
const average = (...nums) =>
nums.reduce((acc, val) => acc + val, 0) / nums.length;
```
```js
average(...[1, 2, 3]); // 2
average(1, 2, 3); // 2
```
