medianSorted

medianSorted(sorted): number

Defined in: src/median_sorted.js:19

The median is the middle number of a list. This is often a good indicator of ‘the middle’ when there are outliers that skew the mean() value. This is a measure of central tendency: a method of finding a typical or central value of a set of numbers.

The median isn’t necessarily one of the elements in the list: the value can be the average of two elements if the list has an even length and the two central values are different.
