class featuretools.primitives.Mean(skipna=True)

Computes the average for a list of values.

Parameters:

skipna (bool) – Determines if to use NA/null values. Defaults to True to skip NA/null.

Examples

>>> mean = Mean()
>>> mean([1, 2, 3, 4, 5, None])

We can also control the way NaN values are handled.

>>> mean = Mean(skipna=False)
>>> mean([1, 2, 3, 4, 5, None])
nan
