- Divides the two to get the average
- Prints the list, then reverse sorts it
-Giving you your results. Ta~da!

+**Update 2026-09-30**
+I've pretty much rewritten this whole snippet to:
+* Fix an issue with files in your working directory breaking the division calculation
+* Allow you to specify any directory (defaulting to `.`)
+* Properly render the text in equally spaced columns
+* Render filesizes as human readable MB, GB, etc.
+* Integrate all of the above [into my NixOS setup](https://github.com/breadcat/nix-configs/blob/main/scripts/average-relative.nix)
