Implementing four statistic calculation methods for mean, median, variance, and standard deviation within a script named stats.rb. Generate an array of random integers and process this array using the methods you defined.
The following arrays will be used
a = [ 70, 65, 80, 85, 23]
b = [ 70, 65, 80, 85, 23, 45]
Mean: puts "mean a: #{mean(a)} & mean b: #{mean(b)}"
Outputs: mean a: 64.6 & mean b: 61.3333333333333
Median: puts "median a: #{median(a)} & median b: #{median(b)}"
Outputs: median a: 70 & median b: 67.5
Variance: puts "variance a: #{variance(a)} & variance b: #{variance(b)}"
Outputs: variance a: 482.64 & variance b: 455.555555555556
Standard Deviation: puts "std_dev a: #{std_dev(a)} & std_dev b: #{std_dev(b)}"
Outputs: std_dev a: 21.9690691655336 & std_dev b: 21.3437474581095

hello sir I am using ruby 1.9.2 and rails 3.0.9
Now I want develop a standalone application for that purpose I need to create ruby archive(RBA) file and executable(.exe) file for windows in ruby on rails.

For that in ruby 1.8.7 there are ftools but in ruby 1.9.2 the are completely converted into fileutils.
For that reason I can't convert my ruby application into .rb by using tar2rubyscript.
Please give me the complete procedure to implement executable(.exe) file in ruby 1.9.2 and rails 3.0.9.

Thanks for you.
