The median of list 0 1 2 3 4 is 2 (the middle element), and the median of 0 1 2 3 is 1.5 (average of the two middle elements). Therefore the definition of median given in Phrases 10C. Math and Stats is incorrect:
median =: <....@-:@# { /:~
median 0 1 2 3 4
2
median 0 1 2 3
2
So, write a correct definition for median! --Kip Murray
