Dear All:
is there away for subsetting data by the median position?
Example:
------------
*Data1: *2, 4, 8, 9,11,11,12 *(n is odd)*
*Data1: *2,4,8,9,11,11,12,15
* (n is even)*
for Data1:
* I want to get:*
*lower half: 2 4 8*
*upper half: 11 11 12*
*for Data2: I want to get:*
*lower half: 2 4 8 9*
*upper half: 11 11 12 15*
with many thanks
steve
