Averages/Simple moving average
Implemented with closures:
func simple_moving_average(period) {
var list = []
var sum = 0
func (number) {
list.append(number)
sum += number
if (list.len > period) {
sum -= list.shift
}
(sum / list.length)
}
}
var ma3 = simple_moving_average(3)
var ma5 = simple_moving_average(5)
for num (1..5, flip(1..5)) {
printf("Next number = %d, SMA_3 = %.3f, SMA_5 = %.1f\n",
num, ma3.call(num), ma5.call(num))
}
Implemented as a class:
class sma_generator(period, list=[], sum=0) {
method SMA(number) {
list.append(number)
sum += number
if (list.len > period) {
sum -= list.shift
}
(sum / list.len)
}
}
var ma3 = sma_generator(3)
var ma5 = sma_generator(5)
for num (1..5, flip(1..5)) {
printf("Next number = %d, SMA_3 = %.3f, SMA_5 = %.1f\n",
num, ma3.SMA(num), ma5.SMA(num))
}
Output:
Next number = 1, SMA_3 = 1.000, SMA_5 = 1.0
Next number = 2, SMA_3 = 1.500, SMA_5 = 1.5
Next number = 3, SMA_3 = 2.000, SMA_5 = 2.0
Next number = 4, SMA_3 = 3.000, SMA_5 = 2.5
Next number = 5, SMA_3 = 4.000, SMA_5 = 3.0
Next number = 5, SMA_3 = 4.667, SMA_5 = 3.8
Next number = 4, SMA_3 = 4.667, SMA_5 = 4.2
Next number = 3, SMA_3 = 4.000, SMA_5 = 4.2
Next number = 2, SMA_3 = 3.000, SMA_5 = 3.8
Next number = 1, SMA_3 = 2.000, SMA_5 = 3.0
