基于@bob的回答，这将查询泛化为能够返回多个中位数，并按某些标准分组。

想想，例如，一个车场二手车的中位数销售价格，按年-月分组。

SELECT 
    period, 
    AVG(middle_values) AS 'median' 
FROM (
    SELECT t1.sale_price AS 'middle_values', t1.row_num, t1.period, t2.count
    FROM (
        SELECT 
            @last_period:=@period AS 'last_period',
            @period:=DATE_FORMAT(sale_date, '%Y-%m') AS 'period',
            IF (@period<>@last_period, @row:=1, @row:=@row+1) as `row_num`, 
            x.sale_price
          FROM listings AS x, (SELECT @row:=0) AS r
          WHERE 1
            -- where criteria goes here
          ORDER BY DATE_FORMAT(sale_date, '%Y%m'), x.sale_price
        ) AS t1
    LEFT JOIN (  
          SELECT COUNT(*) as 'count', DATE_FORMAT(sale_date, '%Y-%m') AS 'period'
          FROM listings x
          WHERE 1
            -- same where criteria goes here
          GROUP BY DATE_FORMAT(sale_date, '%Y%m')
        ) AS t2
        ON t1.period = t2.period
    ) AS t3
WHERE 
    row_num >= (count/2) 
    AND row_num <= ((count/2) + 1)
GROUP BY t3.period
ORDER BY t3.period;

ORACLE的简单解决方案:

SELECT ROUND(MEDIAN(Lat_N), 4) FROM Station;

简单的解决方案，理解MySQL:

select case MOD(count(lat_n),2) 
when 1 then (select round(S.LAT_N,4) from station S where (select count(Lat_N) from station where Lat_N < S.LAT_N ) = (select count(Lat_N) from station where Lat_N > S.LAT_N))
else (select round(AVG(S.LAT_N),4) from station S where 1 = (select count(Lat_N) from station where Lat_N < S.LAT_N ) - (select count(Lat_N) from station where Lat_N > S.LAT_N))
end from station;

解释

STATION是表名。LAT_N是具有数值的列名

假设站表中有101条记录(奇数)。这意味着如果表以asc或desc排序，则中位数是第51条记录。

In above query for every S.LAT_N of S table I am creating two tables. One for number of LAT_N values less than S.LAT_N and another for number of LAT_N values greater than S.LAT_N. Later I am comparing these two tables and if they are matched then I am selecting that S.LAT_N value. When I check for 51st records there are 50 values less than 51st record and there 50 records greater than 51st record. As you see, there are 50 records in both tables. So this is our answer. For every other record there are different number of records in two tables created for comparison. So, only 51st record meets the condition.

现在假设站表中有100条记录(偶数)。这意味着如果表以asc或desc排序，则中位数是第50条和第51条记录的平均值。

Same as odd logic I am creating two tables. One for number of LAT_N values less than S.LAT_N and another for number of LAT_N values greater than S.LAT_N. Later I am comparing these two tables and if their difference is equal to 1 then I am selecting that S.LAT_N value and find the average. When I check for 50th records there are 49 values less than 50th record and there 51 records greater than 50th record. As you see, there is difference of 1 record in both tables. So this(50th record) is our 1st record for average. Similarly, When I check for 51st records there are 50 values less than 51st record and there 49 records greater than 51st record. As you see, there is difference of 1 record in both tables. So this(51st record) is our 2nd record for average. For every other record there are different number of records in two tables created for comparison. So, only 50th and 51st records meet the condition.

一个简单的方法来计算中位数在MySQL

set @ct := (select count(1) from station);
set @row := 0;

select avg(a.val) as median from 
(select * from  table order by val) a
where (select @row := @row + 1)
between @ct/2.0 and @ct/2.0 +1;

对于一个表站和列lat_n，下面是MySQL代码来获得中位数:

set @rows := (select count(1) from station);
set @v1 := 0;
set @sql1 := concat('select lat_n into @v1 from station order by lat_n asc limit 1 offset ', ceil(@rows/2) - 1);
prepare statement1 from @sql1;
execute statement1;
set @v2 := 0;
set @sql2 := concat('select lat_n into @v2 from station order by lat_n asc limit 1 offset ', ceil((@rows + 1)/2) - 1);
prepare statement2 from @sql2;
execute statement2;
select (@v1 + @v2)/2;

最简单和快速的方法来计算中位数在mysql。

select x.col
from   (select lat_n, 
               count(1) over (partition by 'A')        as total_rows, 
               row_number() over (order by col asc) as rank_Order 
        from   station ft) x 
where  x.rank_Order = round(x.total_rows / 2.0, 0) 

在某些情况下，中位数的计算如下:

“中位数”是数字列表中按值排序时的“中间”值。对于偶数集，中位数是两个中间值的平均值。 我为此创建了一个简单的代码:

$midValue = 0;
$rowCount = "SELECT count(*) as count {$from} {$where}";

$even = FALSE;
$offset = 1;
$medianRow = floor($rowCount / 2);
if ($rowCount % 2 == 0 && !empty($medianRow)) {
  $even = TRUE;
  $offset++;
  $medianRow--;
}

$medianValue = "SELECT column as median 
               {$fromClause} {$whereClause} 
               ORDER BY median 
               LIMIT {$medianRow},{$offset}";

$medianValDAO = db_query($medianValue);
while ($medianValDAO->fetch()) {
  if ($even) {
    $midValue = $midValue + $medianValDAO->median;
  }
  else {
    $median = $medianValDAO->median;
  }
}
if ($even) {
  $median = $midValue / 2;
}
return $median;

返回的$中位数将是所需的结果:-)
