How it works

This finds the arithmetic mean: every value is added together, then divided by how many values there are. Entries can be separated by commas, spaces, or line breaks, so you can paste a column straight out of a spreadsheet without reformatting it.

Example

4, 8, 15, 16, 23, 42 → 108 ÷ 6 = 18

The mean is sensitive to outliers — one unusually large value pulls it upward, which is worth remembering when a single figure in your list is far from the rest.
