13 the problem needs to be specific because I have no idea what you are
14 thinking of:
15
16 1) Are the number of lines per file going to be the same? I.e., you
17 can have a variable number of lines, N, but the N is independent of
18 the file you choose?
19
20 2) Are you doing a line by line average? For 2 files of 3 lines
21 each, will you end up with a final average with 3 data points (1st
22 line from 1st file with the 1st line from second file and so on), or
23 will you just have the average of all 6 points?
24
25 There are many more uncertainties to your question, please be more
26 specific.

36 W: I saw a zombie of distinct resemblance to Daniel Jonathan Peng yesterday and
37 played pool with it for two hours
38 W: no
39 W: i think the frozen halibut he ordered was accidently airdropped instead of
40 ground mailed
41 W: and the 140 pounder, poor beast, is deeply hurt
42 W: from landing on top of dan, instead of on the ground
43 S: frozen... halibut...?
44 W: so instead of dying instantaneously, the poor beast suffered a great deal
45 W: yes
46 W: we are just glad he didn't order a sperm whale... because a mistake of that
47 magnitude would have destroyed forbes college altogether
48 S: erk... what a strange occurence
