                                                                                              1.31

                            0.75

"0 A", "1 A-Rhythmical" are PROGRAM_NAMEs i.e. the name of these fields are variable. I would like to get average of its multivalues for each program name by SESSION:

SESSION 0 A 1 A-Rhythmical  2 Inhibition    3 Diff inhibition   4 Shifting  5 Attention
__________________________________________________________________________________________________
1         0.76              0.79            0.79                 1.82          1.06           1.16
2         0.79              0.77             ...

@yurykiselev, just change from values(AVG_RT) to avg(AVG_RT).

<YourBaseSearch>
| chart avg(AVG_RT) over SESSION by PROGRAM_NAME limit=0
