在我的解决方案表中是一个只有分数列的学生表，我正在计算分数的中位数，这个解决方案是基于SQL server 2019的

with total_c as ( --Total_c CTE counts total number of rows in a table
    select count(*) as n from student
),
even as ( --Even CTE extract two middle rows if the number of rows are even
    select marks from student 
    order by marks 
    offset (select n from total_c)/2 -1 rows
    fetch next 2 rows only
),
odd as ( --Odd CTE extract middle row if the number of rows are odd
    select marks from student 
    order by marks 
    offset (select n + 1 from total_c)/2 -1 rows
    fetch next 1 rows only
    )
--Case statement helps to select odd or even CTE based on number of rows
select                                                        
case when n%2 = 0 then (select avg(cast(marks as float)) from even)
    else (select marks from odd)
end as med_marks
from total_c

这段代码有点长，但很容易理解

medii是有列val的表，它有数据集， Smedi是一个cte，它将列idx作为行号，val作为medi表中的'val'，该表是升序排序的。 这是基本的数学，如果行号是奇数，那么它的中值来自smedi。 当它是偶数时，它是中间两个值的平均值。

with smedi(idx,vals) as(
                select ROW_NUMBER() over(order by val),val from medi
                )
select (case
            when (select count(*) from medi)%2!=0 then (select vals from smedi where (((select count(*) from medi)/2))=idx)
            else (select avg(vals) from smedi where idx in ((select count(*)/2 from medi),(select (count(*)/2)+1 from medi)))
            end)

虽然Justin grant的解决方案看起来很可靠，但我发现当您在给定的分区键中有许多重复值时，ASC重复值的行号最终会不按顺序排列，因此它们不能正确对齐。

以下是我的研究结果的一个片段:

KEY VALUE ROWA ROWD  

13  2     22   182
13  1     6    183
13  1     7    184
13  1     8    185
13  1     9    186
13  1     10   187
13  1     11   188
13  1     12   189
13  0     1    190
13  0     2    191
13  0     3    192
13  0     4    193
13  0     5    194

我使用Justin的代码作为这个解决方案的基础。尽管考虑到使用多个派生表效率不高，但它确实解决了我遇到的行排序问题。任何改进都会受到欢迎，因为我在T-SQL方面不是那么有经验。

SELECT PKEY, cast(AVG(VALUE)as decimal(5,2)) as MEDIANVALUE
FROM
(
  SELECT PKEY,VALUE,ROWA,ROWD,
  'FLAG' = (CASE WHEN ROWA IN (ROWD,ROWD-1,ROWD+1) THEN 1 ELSE 0 END)
  FROM
  (
    SELECT
    PKEY,
    cast(VALUE as decimal(5,2)) as VALUE,
    ROWA,
    ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY PKEY ORDER BY ROWA DESC) as ROWD 

    FROM
    (
      SELECT
      PKEY, 
      VALUE,
      ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY PKEY ORDER BY VALUE ASC,PKEY ASC ) as ROWA 
      FROM [MTEST]
    )T1
  )T2
)T3
WHERE FLAG = '1'
GROUP BY PKEY
ORDER BY PKEY

我最初的回答是:

select  max(my_column) as [my_column], quartile
from    (select my_column, ntile(4) over (order by my_column) as [quartile]
         from   my_table) i
--where quartile = 2
group by quartile

这将使您一举获得中位数和四分位范围。如果你真的只想要一行作为中值，那么取消注释where子句。

当你把它放入解释计划时，60%的工作是对数据进行排序，这在计算像这样的位置依赖统计数据时是不可避免的。

我修改了答案，以遵循Robert Ševčík-Robajz在下面的评论中提出的优秀建议:

;with PartitionedData as
  (select my_column, ntile(10) over (order by my_column) as [percentile]
   from   my_table),
MinimaAndMaxima as
  (select  min(my_column) as [low], max(my_column) as [high], percentile
   from    PartitionedData
   group by percentile)
select
  case
    when b.percentile = 10 then cast(b.high as decimal(18,2))
    else cast((a.low + b.high)  as decimal(18,2)) / 2
  end as [value], --b.high, a.low,
  b.percentile
from    MinimaAndMaxima a
  join  MinimaAndMaxima b on (a.percentile -1 = b.percentile) or (a.percentile = 10 and b.percentile = 10)
--where b.percentile = 5

当您有偶数个数据项时，这应该计算正确的中位数和百分比值。同样，如果您只想要中位数而不是整个百分位数分布，请取消最后的where子句的注释。

从员工表中得到工资的中位数

with cte as (select salary, ROW_NUMBER() over (order by salary asc) as num from employees)

select avg(salary) from cte where num in ((select (count(*)+1)/2 from employees), (select (count(*)+2)/2 from employees));
