Raspberry Pi - Web Server and APIYou want to display the average sensor value over the last 5 readings on a Raspberry Pi dashboard. Which approach is best?APrint each reading without storing historyBCalculate average once at startup and never updateCUse only the latest reading as the averageDStore last 5 readings in a list, then calculate average each updateCheck Answer
Step-by-Step SolutionSolution:Step 1: Understand averaging over recent readingsTo average last 5 readings, you must store them in a list or buffer.Step 2: Evaluate options for updating averageCalculating once or using only latest reading ignores new data; printing without storing can't average.Final Answer:Store last 5 readings in a list, then calculate average each update -> Option DQuick Check:Rolling average needs stored recent data [OK]Quick Trick: Keep recent readings in a list to compute rolling average [OK]Common Mistakes:MISTAKESCalculating average only onceUsing single reading as averageNot storing readings for averaging
