用MySQL计算中位数最简单(希望不会太慢)的方法是什么?我已经使用AVG(x)来寻找平均值，但我很难找到一个简单的方法来计算中位数。现在，我将所有的行返回到PHP，进行排序，然后选择中间的行，但是肯定有一些简单的方法可以在一个MySQL查询中完成它。
示例数据:
id | val
--------
1 4
2 7
3 2
4 2
5 9
6 8
7 3
对val排序得到2 2 3 4 7 8 9，因此中位数应该是4，而SELECT AVG(val) == 5。

create table med(id integer);
insert into med(id) values(1);
insert into med(id) values(2);
insert into med(id) values(3);
insert into med(id) values(4);
insert into med(id) values(5);
insert into med(id) values(6);
select (MIN(count)+MAX(count))/2 from
(select case when (select count(*) from
med A where A.id<B.id)=(select count(*)/2 from med) OR
(select count(*) from med A where A.id>B.id)=(select count(*)/2
from med) then cast(B.id as float)end as count from med B) C;
?column?
----------
3.5
(1 row)
OR
select cast(avg(id) as float) from
(select t1.id from med t1 JOIN med t2 on t1.id!= t2.id
group by t1.id having ABS(SUM(SIGN(t1.id-t2.id)))=1) A;

MySQL从8.0版本开始支持窗口函数，您可以使用ROW_NUMBER或DENSE_RANK(不要使用RANK，因为它将相同的RANK分配给相同的值，就像在体育排名):
SELECT AVG(t1.val) AS median_val
FROM (SELECT val,
ROW_NUMBER() OVER(ORDER BY val) AS rownum
FROM data) t1,
(SELECT COUNT(*) AS num_records FROM data) t2
WHERE t1.row_num IN
(FLOOR((t2.num_records + 1) / 2),
FLOOR((t2.num_records + 2) / 2));
关心奇数的计数-给出中间两个值的平均值。
SELECT AVG(val) FROM
( SELECT x.id, x.val from data x, data y
GROUP BY x.id, x.val
HAVING SUM(SIGN(1-SIGN(IF(y.val-x.val=0 AND x.id != y.id, SIGN(x.id-y.id), y.val-x.val)))) IN (ROUND((COUNT(*))/2), ROUND((COUNT(*)+1)/2))
) sq
我的代码，高效，没有表或额外的变量:
SELECT
((SUBSTRING_INDEX(SUBSTRING_INDEX(group_concat(val order by val), ',', floor(1+((count(val)-1) / 2))), ',', -1))
+
(SUBSTRING_INDEX(SUBSTRING_INDEX(group_concat(val order by val), ',', ceiling(1+((count(val)-1) / 2))), ',', -1)))/2
as median
FROM table;
你可以使用这里的用户定义函数。
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)
