MEDIAN(n1,n2,...)
- Where n1,n2… are numerical values.
MEDIAN() calculates the middle value in the set of given values.
Description
MEDIAN(n1,n2,...)
For Example,
MEDIAN(10,30,50,70,90) returns 50.
MEDIAN(2,4,6,8) returns 5.
MEDIAN("TEST","TEN","TAKE","TELL","TRAIN") returns TAKE.
- Arguments can be numbers, logical values or arrays, names or references that contain numbers.
- For a set of even numbers, MEDIAN calculates the average of the two numbers that are in the middle.
- Logical value TRUE is evaluated as '1' and FALSE is evaluated as '0'.
- The cells with zero value are counted.

=MEDIAN(A1:A5) : Calculates the median value in the range A1 to A5. Displays 4 as a result. =MEDIAN(A2,A3,10) : Calculates the median value -20,-30 and 10. Displays -20 as a result. =MEDIAN(B1:B4) : Calculates the median value in the range B1 to B4. Displays 1.5 as a result. Here TRUE is considered as 1. =MEDIAN(B1:B5) : Calculates the median value in the range B1 to B5. Displays TRUE as a result.
