Class Median

java.lang.Object

org.apache.commons.math.stat.descriptive.AbstractUnivariateStatistic

org.apache.commons.math.stat.descriptive.rank.Percentile

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable, UnivariateStatistic

public class Median
extends Percentile
implements java.io.Serializable

Returns the median of the available values. This is the same as the 50th percentile. See Percentile for a description of the algorithm used.

Note that this implementation is not synchronized. If multiple threads access an instance of this class concurrently, and at least one of the threads invokes the increment() or clear() method, it must be synchronized externally.
