median¶
Purpose¶
Computes the medians of the columns of a matrix.
Format¶
-
m =
median(x)¶ - Parameters:
x (NxK matrix) – data
- Returns:
m (Kx1 vector) – contains the medians of the respective columns of x.
Examples¶
// Set the seed for repeatable random data
rndseed 4320993;
// Create uniform random integers between 1 and 10
x = ceil(10*rndu(100, 3));
// Calculate the median of each column of 'x'
md = median(x);
After the code above, md is equal to:
5.0000
5.0000
6.0000
Remarks¶
median() will return a missing value for any column that contains a missing value.
