how to do the sum and average in a vector

Question

?

Amit Mohanty · Answer

You can create a custom extension method that will allow you to calculate the sum and average of a Vector3 in a more readable way and use it as you would use the built-in Sum and Average methods. public static class Vector3Extensions { public static float Sum(this Vector3 vector) { return vector.X + vector.Y + vector.Z; } public static float Average(this Vector3 vector) { return vector.Sum() / 3; } } Then you can use it as Vector3 vector = new Vector3(10 20 30); Console.WriteLine(The sum of the vector is:  + vector.Sum()); Console.WriteLine(The average of the vector is:  + vector.Average());

To Average vector you can do like below. var newVector = new Vector3( list.Average(x=>x.X) list.Average(x=>x.Y) list.Average(x=>x.Z)); list.Average(x=>x.Z) will return average value of Z from all elements from list For Vector Sum (double) type : double vectorSum = Vector.Dot(yourDoubleVector Vector .One); The Dot method calculates the dot product of the two vectors which is defined for two vectors A and B of size n as A1 * B1 + A2 * B2 + ... + An * Bn Reference https://stackoverflow.com/questions/33170643/finding-the-average-of-vectors-in-a-list https://stackoverflow.com/questions/35514685/sum-of-elements-in-system-numerics-vectort-in-net-4-6 Thanks
