            Bug ID: 105032
           Summary: EDITING ENHANCEMENT Add an alias function "mean" for
                    "average"
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 3.3.0 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: Calc
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: jpeacoc...@gmail.com

Description:
Much common statistical software uses the name `mean` rather than `average` for
the function that returns a arithmetic mean of a collection of numbers (eg,
STATA, R, Mathematica). To make using LibreOffice Calc easier for users of
other statistical software, I propose adding an alias `mean` for the `average`
function. In this way, users could type either `mean()` or `average()` for the
same results.
