What is the Median?

The term median refers to a metric used in statistics. It is the middle number in a sorted ascending or descending list of numbers and can be more descriptive of that data set than the average

It is the point above and below which half (50%) of the observed data falls, and so represents the midpoint of the data. The median is often compared with other descriptive statistics such as the mean (average), mode, and standard deviation.
