What’s the average PM 2.5 pollution?¶
This time, we take every PM 2.5 value and add them all together, and we also increment a count for each value, so we can compute an average.

Now, replace the lines that start with # below to write the code to get the average PM 10 value:
csp-18-6-2: csp-18-6-1: The following program prints the maximum PM 2.5 pollution found, but the code is mixed up. Drag the blocks of statements from the left column to the right column and put them in the right order. Then click on Check Me to see if you are right. You will be told if any of the lines are in the wrong order or have the wrong indention.# read all the lines
infile = open("uspoll.txt","r")
lines = infile.readlines()
infile.close()
# initialize the variables
total25 = 0

# loop through the lines
for line in lines:
