You’ll learn

  • Median = the middle value, but ONLY after you put the numbers in order first
  • Median position = (n+1)/2
  • Odd number of values → the median is a real value in the middle
  • Even number of values → the median is halfway between the two middle values (add them and divide by 2)
  • The median is NOT affected by outliers
