How to work the Mean function

Hi Everone,

I have a question in relation to the .

I fed into the MAtlab 2019a a simple instruction, i.e., mean of two variables (example underneath) and it would not solve it anyway

imean1=mean(abs(i_min_1(1,1)),i_max_1(1,1));

If I use it in a translated mathematical formula like underneath:

imean1=(abs(i_min_1(1,1))+i_max_1(1,1))/2;

then it works flwalwssly and very fine proceed with calculation.

Please let me know what could go wrong with it.

Many thanks in advance.

doc mean

shows you the syntax of the mean function. It expects an array, not multiple arguments. Generally you take the mean of more than 2 inputs so having them as individual arguments would not be sensible.

mean( [ abs(i_min_1(1,1)),i_max_1(1,1) ] );

should work.

Thanks Adam.

I followed a different synthax to solve my issue but this is one also works.

By now it is clear.

Many thanks for that.
