#!CNavyBlue #!N  #!Rexavgc AverageCell Module 
Example--Average the Data Values of All Neighbors #!N #!EC #!N #!N 
The AverageCell module computes, for each cell, the average of the 
data values of that cell and all its neighbors. #!N Note: 
This module works only on data that is cell-centered (i.e., connection-dependent) 
and has connections of type "quads." #!N #!N #!N The AverageCell 
module takes one input:  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   input #!EF , of type  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   
field #!EF , which has no default value. The module has 
one output:  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   output #!EF , of type  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   field #!EF 
. #!N #!N  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   (1) START THE MODULE BUILDER #!EF with
