I'm not much into golf, but, since we've long since left the clubhouse, and
because I am very lazy:

puts [ sum,mean,array.min,array.max ].map { |v| v.to_s }.join(' ')

This has the sole advantage that particular elements can be added and
removed without a lot of typing. If no one expects to change the program,
then there's no point in it.
