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.

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.

To learn more about using aggregate functions, see Building complex formulas with grouped data.
