Are these included?
If so, then 10-11 hours is a typical day. It's median and modal; probably not average because I have more free days than 20-hour days. I also somewhat regularly code 10h days in weekends, but half/free days are more common.
According to my Wakatime profile I coded 19 hours last week, an average of 3.5 hours a day.
This,however, doesn't mean I worked only 3.5 hours every day. I'm no plain coder (and I don't think such a role exists, although it might in the future), but a software engineer. Whenever I plan to write a piece of code, I tend to think a lot beforehand, or even consult with my colleagues on how it will scale. For example, a few days ago we had an intense chat over e-mail about a new feature I want to roll out soon. It turned out I overlooked some parts of it.
So in that 3.5 hours I write actual code. But it's really hard to quantity how much I think before that.
Hard to quantify how much someone is effectively coding, my average is in 5-6 hours range. But that is the reported time where you actually write code reported from tracking tool like Wakatime.
7-8 hours a day , sometimes it can be 10-12, but not more and it is rare.
8-12 hours a day. Depending on the day. I actually have a lot on my plate. So there is always something I need to be working on.

Mostly Backend guy
Out of my 8 working hours, I code for 4 hours at max. I don't want to get interrupted during this period.
In the remaining hours, I discuss/chat with my peers and managers. Mostly these chats do not revolve around the project but I get to learn new dev things and news.
