I'm trying to use gpiozero LoadAverage to get the average system load for display on a small OLED plate. The problem is, any time I try to assign LoadAverage().load_average to a variable, it generates a
<_io.TextIOWrapper name='/proc/loadavg' mode='r' encoding='UTF-8'>
Any suggestions on how I can get the load average from gpiozero without it generating these messages? I'm not a python programmer so I'm trying to hack stuff together into the adafruit stats.py script.
