 *
 *   Avg[n] = a * Val[n] + (1 - a) * Avg[n - 1]
 *
 * where parameter 'a' determines how much weight of the latest measurement value
 * 'Val[n]' carries vs the weight of the accumulated average 'Avg[n - 1]'.  The
 * value of 'a' is usually a float in range 0 .. 1, so:
 *
 *  - value 0.5 gives equal weight to both 'Val[n]' and 'Avg[n - 1]';
 *  - value 1.0 means no filtering at all (pass through);
 *  - value 0.0 makes no sense.
 *
 * Further optimization:
 *
 *   Avg[n] = a * Val[n] + Avg[n - 1] - a * Avg[n - 1]
 *   ^^^^^^                ^^^^^^^^^^
 *
 * a) this can be implemented in C using '+=' operator:
 *
 *   Avg += a * Val - a * Avg
 *   Avg += a * (Val - Avg)
 *
 * b) everything is scaled up by 100 to avoid floating point stuff:
 *
 *   Avg100 += A * (Val - Avg)
 *
 * where 'Avg100' is 'Avg * 100' and 'A' is 'a * 100'.
