[Nottingham] Introduction and Java Question

[James Dobson]

Hi,

Would be a two/three liner in perl ;) but I think you just need to put the results into a array and then when it comes to printing them out just loop through the results and print the result out.

Maybe put all the results into 2D array i.e.

[
Mean = [ X ],
Medium = [ X ],
Mode = [ X, Y],
] 

That way you can just loop through each key value to return the results and not do something specific for just mode.
