### averageBy
|
|
|
|
Returns the average of an array, after mapping each element to a value using the provided function.
|
|
|
|
Use `Array.map()` to map each element to the value returned by `fn`, `Array.reduce()` to add each value to an accumulator, initialized with a value of `0`, divide by the `length` of the array.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
const averageBy = (arr, fn) =>
|
|
arr.map(typeof fn === 'function' ? fn : val => val[fn]).reduce((acc, val) => acc + val, 0) /
|
|
arr.length;
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
averageBy([{ n: 4 }, { n: 2 }, { n: 8 }, { n: 6 }], o => o.n); // 5
|
|
averageBy([{ n: 4 }, { n: 2 }, { n: 8 }, { n: 6 }], 'n'); // 5
|
|
```
