wrong:
for height in heights:
h += height
count +=1
average = height / count
right:
for height in heights:
h += height
count +=1
average = h / count

You're calculating it wrong, you use the last height-value and divide it by the number of heights instead of dividing the sum of all heights.

Did you run the code or just read it the height value being used is the sum of the heights

This is the first time I've down voted my comment to highlight the help I was given and that's cause I'm sure there are hundreds out there making that same mistake
