Week 5 Assignment 2
HTML
<p>There is one exercise in this practice set.</p>
<p>In this exercise, you will take some of the repetitive code in this example and move it into a function that performs the same task. In your solution, you'll call your new function three times instead of having the code duplicated in three places. See the code comments for more guidance. </p>
<p>Remember that code can be awfully difficult to debug in JSFiddle. If you get frustrated trying to find a bug as you write your solution, you may want to copy this example to a local version on your computer to work it out, then paste it back in to JSFiddle.</p>

// Reducing code to one function called calcAvg.
document.getElementById("doIt").onclick = function(){
//Declaring the variables for each row
var rowInputs = document.getElementsByClassName("row1");
document.getElementById("row1Average").innerHTML = calcAvg(rowInputs);
var rowInputs = document.getElementsByClassName("row2");
document.getElementById("row2Average").innerHTML = calcAvg(rowInputs);
var rowInputs = document.getElementsByClassName("row3");
document.getElementById("row3Average").innerHTML = calcAvg(rowInputs);
}
function calcAvg(rowInputs){
var sum=0, value=0, count=0;
// Then we iterate over that array, and for each element...
for(var i=0; i<rowInputs.length; i++){
// ...we get its value (parsed to an integer)
value = parseInt(rowInputs[i].value);
// ...and if that value isn't undefined or NaN, add
// it to the sum, and increment the counter
if (value){
sum += value;
count++;
}
}
// Now we calculate the average, and write to the last cell in the row
return == sum/count;
