I have a 3-dimensional variable that is of the class double, example: data has 50x2000x999. I would like to compute the mean for the 3rd dimension first, then the second dimension, and then the first dimension.
I know one way to do this is:
meandata = mean(data,3)
meandata = mean(meandata,2)
meandata = mean(meandata).
Is there a more efficient way to do this? In one line of code probably?
Thanks,
Akul

mean(data,'all') % or
mean(data,[3 2 1])
