The median of a dataset is the true middle value of the values sorted. Now, if there isn't a single middle value, such as if there's an even number of elements in the list, then we take the average of the two values closest to the sorted middle. In this video, we're going to discuss the algorithm for computing the median of a dataset, and we're going to take the traditional approach of sorting the values first and then selecting the values we need in order to compute the median. We're going to be testing the circumstances under which the median function should behave, and then we're going to compute the median of our 2015 away-team runs using our prototyped function.
In the last section, we were discussing the mean and standard ...
