While Math.sum() and Math.mean() currently don't exist, they can easily be
polyfilled:
See

for summarizing the values of an array and the following code for building

Reviving this thread, doing any type of simple statistics is more verbose
than it probably needs to be as calculating sums, averages, etc. makes most
resort to Array reduction. I understand the need for methods such as
`Math.hypot(...values)`, but for ECMAScript to evolve to be useful in
statistics
FWICT Promises and Generators aren't designed at all for best performance,
which is why nobody cares much on the IoT world of micro controller where
"5 objects" instead of just one callback makes practically no sense
(Espruino or Duktape just to name few).

Performance could be a bottle neck in some situations. I'm particular
Great introduction on history of Promise, your suggestion are also very
informative, thank you very much!

You seem to be picking on q as the standard promise implementation, but it's
actually one of the most complex implementation of a promise and does far more
than just implement the standard.
If you want to see how a simpler implementation (which just implements
promises/A+) would look, I suggest

What is the definition of "check other languages"? Where do you get the
