From: jackster the jackle Date: 2008-08-16T00:34:15+09:00 Subject: Need to get average of specific fields in MySQL Hi Forum, My Active Record query works fine and pull all records where ipadd='10.1.1.1' and print out the current_connection_count values but I need to get the average of those numbers. here is my Active Record config: ------------------ class Pix end device = Pix.find(:all, :conditions => "pixes.ipadd = '10.1.1.1'") device.each do |line| puts line.current_connection_count end ------------------ Is it best to somehow change my sql query to get the average of these numbers or is it better to try do it after the sql query (which I don't know how to do either :-)) ? any help would be appreciated. thanks jackster -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
