I'm currently doing this with a bloated network of attribCopy and point sops. Surely there's a better way. I need to compute the average of $VX of the same point across n number of frames. I've looked at pointavg(), but it averages an attribute across all points in the same geometry. Coming from Maya/MEL, I just want to write a loop. What's the best approach in Houdini?

Thank you for any tips.

Hi!!

You can use CHOP's; Import the point attribute as animated, then just compute the min and max attribute channel value with a math chop and then fit the range or average the value.
