Which one will be better:

create an array of BYTES or of INTEGERS

for the purpose of finding the average value of the array?

There are between 50 000 to 100 000 elements of array and I am looking for

Your sort method is more likely to have a large impact on CPU
usage/speed than the data type, although I believe Longs are considered
the 'fastest' datatype in 32 bit VB.
