I have a table:



 A B C
X 1 2 3
Y 4 5 6
Z 7 8 9


I want to create two new columns D and E, calculating the average and the value of a formula (A+B)/C respectively to get:



 A B C D E
X 1 2 3 2 1
Y 4 5 6 5 1.5
Z 7 8 9 8 1.67


How to do that? All post I found from search are calculating values in a column but not row, and output to another file.

  • Are the ABCXYZ labels actually part of your file? If so, you'd be better off removing them and just having the data itself in the file.
