function [ave, nvals] = calc_average(structure,field)
%CALC_AVERAGE Calculate the average of values in a field. 
% Function CALC_AVERAGE calculates the average value
% of the elements in a particular field of a structure 
% array.  It returns the average value and (optionally)
% the number of items averaged.
 
% Define variables:
%   arr       -- Array of values to average
%   ave       -- Average of arr
%   ii        -- Index variable
