The median of a normal distribution with mean μ and variance σ 2 is μ. In fact, for a normal distribution, mean = median = mode. The median of a uniform distribution in the interval [a, b] is (a + b) / 2, which is also the mean. The median of a Cauchy distribution with location parameter x 0 and scale parameter y is x 0, the location parameter.
The lower weighted median is 2 with partition sums of 0.49 and 0.5, and the upper weighted median is 3 with partition sums of 0.5 and 0.25. In the case of working with integers or non-interval measures , the lower weighted median would be accepted since it is the lower weight of the pair and therefore keeps the partitions most equal.

Unlike mean and median, the concept of mode also makes sense for "nominal data" (i.e., not consisting of numerical values in the case of mean, or even of ordered values in the case of median). For example, taking a sample of Korean family names , one might find that " Kim " occurs more often than any other name.
In Microsoft Excel, these functions are defined using Visual Basic for Applications in the supplied Visual Basic editor, and such functions are automatically accessible on the worksheet. Also, programs can be written that pull information from the worksheet, perform some calculations, and report the results back to the worksheet.
From January 2008 to May 2010, if you bought shares in companies when Robert I. MacDonnell joined the board, and sold them when he left, you would have a -30.7 percent return on your investment, compared to a -24.0 percent return from the S&P 500.
To make such predictions, one can look to his first presidency, as well as promises and assertions he’s made on the campaign trail, from tariffs to deportations to massive deregulation. As NPR ...
The diagram shows the construction on an IFS from two affine functions. The functions are represented by their effect on the bi-unit square (the function transforms the outlined square into the shaded square). The combination of the two functions forms the Hutchinson operator. Three iterations of the operator are shown, and then the final image ...
