Question: Power (Hölder-) Mean

Hi all,

I am looking for a package to calculate the power mean (or Hölder mean) defined like

Mean_p(x_n)=(1/N Sum(x_n^p,n=1..N))^(1/p)

in a hopefully obvious notation. I can obviously implement this definition directly in Maple, but there are subtleties (like the limit of p=0) which maybe a mature implementation already covers (?).

I am still mostly on Maple 15 which does not have such a Mean. If 16 or 17 have it I would not becessarily know.
