Simple Moving Average

xixi.li.7 0 Tallied Votes 223 Views Share

I have a project to calculate simple moving average of a data, and the data contains over 4000 values. And requires me to skip the first 14 days and calculate the simple moving average on rest of data. I never experience use moving average and ask me to use LINQ to do this. Can anyone help me out? The output should be display something like this:

Moving averager with sums array:

            }
