Description

This function calculated the average value of a metric based on the time or any dimension that quantifies the metric.

/*
Calculation Script name - Average
Description - calculate the average value of a metric based on the time or
                 any dimension that quantifies the metric.
Product Version - v66
Script Version - 1.0

***Disclaimer - This is proprietary code of Whiz.AI. If you want to build on top of this computation script please make a copy/clone of this script and then alter the script which is copied or cloned. When version upgrade happens there are chances that this script may get modified hence any customization done by customer/partner developer may be overwritten.

Key Functions - 1.Function name:compute
                purpose : calculate average
                input parameters :metadataQuery
                output parameters : dataframe
              
Key variables - query : implicit variable 
                baseMetric :metric on which computation will be performed
                aggregations :list of aggregation
                outputmetricName : final computation name (dynamically crated)
                dataAccessManager :This class is exposed to scripts by Framework through implicit variable dataAccessManager.
                                   This acts as gateway to data exposed by the framework. A query can be fired through this instance to get the data.

Following Configuration needs to be done for Function in Admin Console :-

/*
 ** configuration to be set in calculation metric **

default_filter: In this section's dynamicArgs sub-section, we will have the information related to the necessary aggregations required.
avgParam : avgParam is arraylist of metadataQuery configuration.
           This block elements are passed to script as a parameter. 
avgParam[0] : Map at index 0 in a avgParam list
             its a numerator part where in column we will pass Base metric. 
    type : In here we specify which type of calculation we want.
    Column : It is used to specify on which column given type of operation needs to perform. 

avgParam[1] : Map at index 1 in a avgParam list
             Its a denominator part where type of calculation is decided 
    type : In here we specify which type of  denominator calculation we want.
    Column : It is used to specify on which column countDistinct operation needs to perform. 

avgParam[2] : Here division Aggregation is specified.
    value : name of aggregation used in numerator
    denominator : name of aggregation used in denominator
    divByZeroResponse : if denominator is 0, this value should be returned

**The configuration below should be copied and pasted to calculate the Average.*
