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.

通常，我们不仅需要为整个表计算Median，还需要为与ID相关的聚合计算Median。换句话说，计算表中每个ID的中位数，其中每个ID有许多记录。(良好的性能和工作在许多SQL +修复偶数和赔率的问题，更多关于不同的中值方法的性能https://sqlperformance.com/2012/08/t-sql-queries/median)

SELECT our_id, AVG(1.0 * our_val) as Median
FROM
( SELECT our_id, our_val, 
  COUNT(*) OVER (PARTITION BY our_id) AS cnt,
  ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY our_id ORDER BY our_val) AS rn
  FROM our_table
) AS x
WHERE rn IN ((cnt + 1)/2, (cnt + 2)/2) GROUP BY our_id;

希望能有所帮助

MariaDB / MySQL:

SELECT AVG(dd.val) as median_val
FROM (
SELECT d.val, @rownum:=@rownum+1 as `row_number`, @total_rows:=@rownum
  FROM data d, (SELECT @rownum:=0) r
  WHERE d.val is NOT NULL
  -- put some where clause here
  ORDER BY d.val
) as dd
WHERE dd.row_number IN ( FLOOR((@total_rows+1)/2), FLOOR((@total_rows+2)/2) );

Steve Cohen指出，在第一次传递之后，@rownum将包含总行数。这可用于确定中值，因此不需要第二次传递或连接。

此外，AVG(dd.val)和dd.row_number IN(…)用于在有偶数条记录时正确地产生中位数。推理:

SELECT FLOOR((3+1)/2),FLOOR((3+2)/2); -- when total_rows is 3, avg rows 2 and 2
SELECT FLOOR((4+1)/2),FLOOR((4+2)/2); -- when total_rows is 4, avg rows 2 and 3

最后，MariaDB 10.3.3+包含一个MEDIAN函数

MySQL文档中这一页的注释有以下建议:

-- from there we can select the n-th element on the position: count div 2 + 1 

你可以使用这里的用户定义函数。

让我们创建一个名为numbers的示例表

这个答案是针对mysql数据库的

在postgres Sql中，它简单地使用per_cont函数

创建表数字( num INT, 频率整数 ）;

在数字表中插入值

插入数字 (7) 0 (1, 1), (2、3), (1) 3 (9,1), (1, 1), (2、3), (1) 3 (9,1);

——select * from numbers

作为递归num_frequency (num,frequency, i) （ 选择num,频率,1 从数字 UNION ALL 选择num,频率,i + 1 从num_frequency num_frequency的地方。I < num_frequency.frequency ）

select * (max(当numbers=lower_limit时，则num else null end)/2 +max(当数字=upper_limit时，则num else null end)/2)作为中位数 从( select *, total_number % 2, 情况下 当total_number%2=0时，total_number/2 Else (total_number+1)/2 end as lower_limit， 情况下 当total_number%2=0时，total_number/2+1 其他(total_number + 1) / 2 结束为upper_limit

从( Select *，max(numbers) over() as total_number from ( Select num,row_number() over(按num排序) 作为num_frequency中的数字 b) b) b)
