referencing variable names in an array?

[PoLyGLoT]

Thanks to you all for helping to explain an array. The analogies are good ones.

Are there ways to get "averages" out of arrays. For instance, get the average of item 5 of the keys of myArray? Just curious.

Thank you again.

You can do a whole array, provided the elements are all numbers, Otherwise, likely you will have to extract the pertinent data and do it "outside". It is not much different than asking if you can get the average of the middle five lines of a list. You must be able to address those particular elements explicitly if they are a subset of some larger entity.
