- Median[ <List of Numbers> ]
- Determines the median of the list elements.
Example:
Median[{1, 2, 3}]yields 2 andMedian[{1, 1, 8, 8}]yields 4,5.
Note:
If the length of the given list is even, the arithmetic mean of the two center elements is returned.
CAS Syntax
- Median[ <List of Numbers> ]
- Determines the median of the list elements.
Example:
Median[{1, 2, 3}]yields 2 andMedian[{1, 1, 8, 8}]yields 4,5.
Note:
If the length of the given list is even, the arithmetic mean of the two center elements is returned.
