Python – Mean deviation of Elements

Given a list, the task is to write a Python program to compute how deviated are each of them from its list mean. 

Examples:

Input : test_list = [7, 5, 1, 2, 10, 3] 
Output : [2.333333333333333, 0.33333333333333304, 3.666666666666667, 2.666666666666667, 5.333333333333333, 1.666666666666667] 
Explanation : Mean is 4.66667, related differences are computed.
 

Input : test_list = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] 
Output : [2, 1, 0, 1, 2] 
Explanation : Mean is 3, related differences are computed. 

Method #1 : Using loop + mean() + abs()

In this, we perform iteration of each element and compute deviation from mean using abs(), the computation of mean is done using mean().

Python3




# Python3 code to demonstrate working of
# Mean deviation of Elements
# Using loop + mean() + abs()
from statistics import mean
 
# initializing list
test_list = [7, 5, 1, 2, 10, 3]
 
# printing original lists
print("The original list is : " + str(test_list))
 
res = []
 
# getting mean
mean_val = mean(test_list)
 
for ele in test_list:
 
    # getting deviation
    res.append(abs(ele - mean_val))
 
# printing result
print("Mean deviations : " + str(res))


Output:

The original list is : [7, 5, 1, 2, 10, 3] Mean deviations : [2.333333333333333, 0.33333333333333304, 3.666666666666667, 2.666666666666667, 5.333333333333333, 1.666666666666667]

Time Complexity: O(n)
Auxiliary Space: O(n)

Method #2 : Using list comprehension + mean() 

In this similar functionalities are used as above function, difference being list comprehension is used as one-liner to solve this problem.

# initializing list
test_list = [7, 5, 1, 2, 10, 3]

print("The original list is : " + str(test_list))
 
res = []
 
# getting mean
mean_val = mean(test_list)
 
# list comprehension used for 1 liner
res = [abs(ele - mean_val) for ele in test_list]
 
# printing result
print("Mean deviations : " + str(res))


Output:

The original list is : [7, 5, 1, 2, 10, 3] Mean deviations : [2.333333333333333, 0.33333333333333304, 3.666666666666667, 2.666666666666667, 5.333333333333333, 1.666666666666667]

Time Complexity: O(n)

Space Complexity: O(n)
