# Median

The **Median** function finds the mathematical median of a column or group.

The **Median** function is an aggregate function.

Aggregate functions evaluate one or more rows of data and return a single value.

In a table element, the aggregate is calculated for each grouping. For information on how to add a grouping with an aggregate calculation to a table, see [Group columns in a table](/docs/create-and-manage-tables#group-columns-in-a-table).

In a table with no groupings, the aggregate is calculated for each row. For information on how to calculate summary statistics across all rows in a table, see [Add summary statistics to a table](/docs/create-and-manage-tables#add-summary-statistics-to-a-table).

To learn more about using aggregate functions, see [Building complex formulas with grouped data](https://www.sigmacomputing.com/resources/training-videos/table-grouping-and-functions#complex-formulas).

## Syntax

`Median(numbers)`

Function arguments:

* **column** (required) - The column of numbers to be evaluated.

If there is an even number of values, Median interpolates between the middle values.

## Example

```
Median([Temperature])
```

Find the median temperature value. If the column values are 3, 5, 7 and 20, the result is 6.
