numpy.mean() in Python

Parameters : arr : [array_like]input array. axis : [int or tuples of int]axis along which we want to calculate the arithmetic mean. Otherwise, it will consider arr to be flattened(works on all the axis). axis = 0 means along the column and axis = 1 means working along the row. out : [ndarray, optional]Different array in which we want to place the result. The array must have the same dimensions as expected output. dtype : [data-type, optional]Type we desire while computing mean. Results : Arithmetic mean of the array (a scalar value if axis is none) or array with mean values along specified axis.

# numpy.mean() method 
import numpy as np
  
# 1D array 
arr = [20, 2, 7, 1, 34]

print("arr : ", arr) 
print("mean of arr : ", np.mean(arr))
  

arr :  [20, 2, 7, 1, 34]
mean of arr :  12.8
