MedianMedian Whenever there are some extreme values in
data, calculation of A.M. is not desirable Median of a set of values is defined as the
middle most value of a series of values arranged in ascending / descending order
If the number of observations is odd, the value corresponding to the middle most values is the median
If the number of observations is even then the average of the two middle most values is the median
