- Note
- If n is odd, the median is the value of rank (n+1)/2 when the values are arranged in increasing order. If n is even, the median may be any number between the values of rank n/2 and (n/2+1) usually the arithmetic mean of these two values
- Remark
- The term median is a good choice to represent the centre of distribution when the distribution is skewed or has outliers
