Mean
Javadoc
Transforms for computing the arithmetic mean of the elements in a collection,
or the mean of the values associated with each key in a collection of key-value pairs.
Mean.globally()returns a transform that then returns a collection whose contents is the mean of the input collection’s elements. If there are no elements in the input collection, it returns 0.Mean.perKey()returns a transform that returns a collection that contains an output element mapping each distinct key in the input collection to the mean of the values associated with that key in the input collection.
Examples
Example 1: get the mean of a PCollection of Longs.
PCollection<Double> input = ...;
PCollection<Double> mean = input.apply(Mean.globally());
Example 2: calculate the mean of the Integers associated with each unique key (which is of type String).
PCollection<KV<String, Integer>> input = ...;
PCollection<KV<String, Integer>> meanPerKey =
input.apply(Mean.perKey());
