Given an array of elements, find harmonic mean of numbers. 
Examples: 
 

Input : arr[] = {2.0, 1.0}
Output : 1.3333
Harmonic mean = 2/(1/2.0 + 1/1.0)
             = (2 * 2)/3
             = 1.333

Input : arr[] = {13.5, 14.5, 14.8, 15.2, 16.1}
Output : 14.7707


 

Harmonic mean is used when average of rates is required, below is the formula.
Harmonic mean of n numbers x1, x2, 
x3, . . ., xn can written as below.
Harmonic mean = n / ((1/x1) + (1/x2) + (1/x3) + . . . + (1/xn))

 
Below is the implementation of Harmonic Mean. 
 

C++ 
// CPP program to find harmonic mean of numbers.
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;

// Function that returns harmonic mean.
float harmonicMean(float arr[], int n)
{
    // Declare sum variables and initialize with zero.
    float sum = 0;
    for (int i = 0; i < n; i++)
        sum = sum + (float)1 / arr[i];
    return (float)n / sum;
}

// Driver code
int main()
{
    float arr[] = { 13.5, 14.5, 14.8, 15.2, 16.1 };
    int n = sizeof(arr) / sizeof(arr[0]);
    cout << harmonicMean(arr, n);
    return 0;
}

What if we are given elements and their frequencies? 
If we are given n numbers and every number has some frequency then simply we use formula 
Harmonic mean = (Frequency-Sum) /((f1/x1) + (f2/x2) + (f3/x3) + . . . + (fn/xn)) 
Where f1, f2, f3, . . ., fn are the frequencies of elements and x1, 2, x3, . . ., xn are the elements of array.
Frequency-Sum = f1 + f2 + f3, . . ., fn
Examples: 
 

Input : num[] = {13, 14, 15, 16, 17}
        freq[] = {2, 5, 13, 7, 3}
Output : 15.0631
