Calculate the median. Our calculator finds the median for you.
The median is the middle number in a sorted list of numbers. The median is less affected by extreme values compared to the mean, and is often preferred when dealing with outliers.
To use this calculator, separate each number with a space (example: 2 5 4 etc). This calculator does not accept decimal numbers. Do not use thousand separators or letters.
Formula for the position of the median when the number of values, n, is odd:
$$\frac{n+1}{2}$$
Formula for the position of the median when the number of values, n, is even:
$$\frac{n}{2}$$
