Default Counting with dates and other criteria

Hoping you can help me.

I have Column A with a start date and Column B with an end date. Column C
has "New". Column D has the name "Jane". Column E has the number of days
between A and B. I want to:

1. See the average number of days (e1:e50) for Jane only
2. See the average number of days (e1:e50) for only Jane that are only New

Try these array formulas** :

=AVERAGE(IF(D1:D50="Jane",E1:E50))

=AVERAGE(IF((C1:C50="new")*(D1:D50="Jane"),E1:E50) )

** array formulas need to be entered using the key combination of
CTRL,SHIFT,ENTER (not just ENTER)

What happens in this formula if there is no number in e1:e:50. Does the
average skip it or does it take a 0. If so, how would this formula look
different if you ask it to skip cells that are blank or have "0".
Thanks

To exclude 0 and empty cells:

Array entered

=AVERAGE(IF((C1:C50="new")*(D1:D50="Jane")*(E1:E50 <0),E1:E50))
