A '''median''' is the middle [[number]] in an ordered numerical [[sequence]]. If there are two middle numbers (i.e. there is an even number of terms in the sequence), then the median is found by taking the [[mean]] of the two middle numbers.
So in an example of the following numerical values:
:2, 4, 5, 11, 13
The median is 5, as there are 2 values less than 5 and 2 values greater than 5.
The median is sometimes preferred as a measure of centrality over the mean due to the fact that is isn't as affected by outliers as the mean is.
