Weighted average
Returns the weighted average of two or more numbers.
- Use
sum()
to sum the products of the numbers by their weight and to sum the weights. - Use
zip()
and a list comprehension to iterate over the pairs of values and weights.
def weighted_average(nums, weights): return sum(x * y for x, y in zip(nums, weights)) / sum(weights) weighted_average([1, 2, 3], [0.6, 0.2, 0.3]) # 1.72727
