title: Bash, how to get the average execution time of multiple average execution times?
body: <p>For a project, I need to determine which programming language executes the fastest, so I've got a whole bunch of hello worlds. I need to get the average of 1000 iterations, then I need the average of 100 of those 1000s. My knowledge of bash is rather limited. I've read up on the time command, and for loops, but I can't figure out how to grab the result of the command, and add it up.</p>
  
  <p>Any help here would be very appreciated, and thank you in advance.</p>
