awk question
I have a data set that has 9 columns (Name, Type, Score).
here's a sample name=name, Type = Q(for quiz) - E(for exams) - H(for Homework) - F(for final), Score = 90.
I can easily add up all my scores then divide them for average or mean (total/n). How do I assign the value to corresponding letter in an Array

Ex.

Code:
Name   Type   Score   Type   Score   Type   Score   Type   Score
Jones     Q        90       H        100     E        74        F        75
Bob          q         80      H        70       e        88        f        77


if I want to ad all the digits after Q (like 90 and 80) to get the average, how would I throw them in an array to get the mean?

OverrideShell(3X)														 OverrideShell(3X)

NAME

       OverrideShell - The OverrideShell widget class

SYNOPSIS

       #include <Xm/Xm.h> #include <X11/Shell.h>

DESCRIPTION

       OverrideShell is used for shell windows that completely bypass the window manager, for example, PopupMenu shells.

   Classes
       OverrideShell inherits behavior and resources from Core, Composite, and Shell.

       The class pointer is overrideShellWidgetClass.

       The class name is OverrideShell.

   New Resources
       OverrideShell defines no new resources, but overrides the XmNoverrideRedirect and XmNsaveUnder resources in the Shell class.

   Inherited Resources
       OverrideShell  inherits	behavior and resources from the following superclasses.  For a complete description of each resource, refer to the
       man page for that superclass.

       The following table defines a set of widget resources used by the programmer to specify data.  The programmer can  also	set  the  resource
       values  for  the  inherited  classes  to set attributes for this widget.  To reference a resource by name or by class in a .Xdefaults file,
       remove the XmN or XmC prefix and use the remaining letters.  To specify one of the defined values for a	resource  in  a  .Xdefaults  file,
       remove the Xm prefix and use the remaining letters (in either lowercase or uppercase, but include any underscores between words). The codes
       in the access column indicate if the given resource can be set at creation time (C), set by  using  XtSetValues	(S),  retrieved  by  using
       XtGetValues (G), or is not applicable (N/A).
