The values are added and divided by the count. Separators can be commas, spaces, semicolons or new lines.

Assumptions and limits

  • The arithmetic mean only. Geometric and harmonic means, used for growth rates and averaged speeds, are different calculations.
  • Non-numeric entries are skipped, so a stray word does not drag the average down.
  • The Average Calculator performs the identical calculation.
