AVR

Average input X over evaluation cycles.

[SPU SUM X TYP T RS OUT Y]

In:	X	a number, vector or matrix containing the data to be averaged
	TYP	a number or string; defines the averaging method
	T	averaging parameter (number); depends on method
	RS	reset flag (number)
Out:	Y	averaged input X; same type as X

Description

The averaging algorithm is defined by the inputs TYP and T. The atom averages the elements X[i,j]_t over evaluation cycles t (i=row index, j=column index, t=cycle counter) and stores the averaged value in the element Y[i,j]_t.

The cycle counter t is initialized with 0 and incremented by 1 after each evaluation cycle. The cycle counter is reset, if the input RS is set to a value greater than 0. The input RS is checked each time the SPU is started.
