*COMPUTE AVERAGE VALUE BETWEEN TWO X VALUES FOR THE CURVES*
===========================================================

Computes the average (mean) y-value of one or more curves over a specified x-axis interval [x_min, x_max], skipping all points outside that range. Use this worker whenever you need a scalar summary statistic for a curve segment, such as mean force or mean acceleration over a time window.

     - ✓
     - One or more input curves (x/y pairs) over which the average will be computed; supply all curves whose mean y-value within the x window is required.
   * - X Min
     - x_min
     - float
     - 0.0
     - 
     - Lower bound of the x-axis integration window (same units as the curve's x-axis); data points with x < x_min are excluded — defaults to 0.0.
   * - X Max
     - x_max
     - float
     - 1.0
     - 
     - Upper bound of the x-axis integration window (same units as the curve's x-axis); data points with x > x_max are excluded — defaults to 1.0.
