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。

您可以使用窗口函数row_number()来回答查询以找到介质
select val
from (select val, row_number() over (order by val) as rownumber, x.cnt
from data, (select count(*) as cnt from data) x) abc
where rownumber=ceil(cnt/2);
其他回答
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;
我有下面的代码，我在HackerRank上找到的，它很简单，适用于每一种情况。
SELECT M.MEDIAN_COL FROM MEDIAN_TABLE M WHERE
(SELECT COUNT(MEDIAN_COL) FROM MEDIAN_TABLE WHERE MEDIAN_COL < M.MEDIAN_COL ) =
(SELECT COUNT(MEDIAN_COL) FROM MEDIAN_TABLE WHERE MEDIAN_COL > M.MEDIAN_COL );

归档完美中位数的单个查询:
SELECT
COUNT(*) as total_rows,
IF(count(*)%2 = 1, CAST(SUBSTRING_INDEX(SUBSTRING_INDEX( GROUP_CONCAT(val ORDER BY val SEPARATOR ','), ',', 50/100 * COUNT(*)), ',', -1) AS DECIMAL), ROUND((CAST(SUBSTRING_INDEX(SUBSTRING_INDEX( GROUP_CONCAT(val ORDER BY val SEPARATOR ','), ',', 50/100 * COUNT(*) + 1), ',', -1) AS DECIMAL) + CAST(SUBSTRING_INDEX(SUBSTRING_INDEX( GROUP_CONCAT(val ORDER BY val SEPARATOR ','), ',', 50/100 * COUNT(*)), ',', -1) AS DECIMAL)) / 2)) as median,
AVG(val) as average
FROM
data
我有一个包含大约10亿行的数据库，我们需要它来确定集合中的年龄中位数。对十亿行进行排序是困难的，但如果你将可以找到的不同值(年龄范围从0到100)聚合在一起，你可以对这个列表进行排序，并使用一些算术魔术来找到你想要的任何百分位数，如下所示:
with rawData(count_value) as
(
select p.YEAR_OF_BIRTH
from dbo.PERSON p
),
overallStats (avg_value, stdev_value, min_value, max_value, total) as
(
select avg(1.0 * count_value) as avg_value,
stdev(count_value) as stdev_value,
min(count_value) as min_value,
max(count_value) as max_value,
count(*) as total
from rawData
),
aggData (count_value, total, accumulated) as
(
select count_value,
count(*) as total,
SUM(count(*)) OVER (ORDER BY count_value ROWS UNBOUNDED PRECEDING) as accumulated
FROM rawData
group by count_value
)
select o.total as count_value,
o.min_value,
o.max_value,
o.avg_value,
o.stdev_value,
MIN(case when d.accumulated >= .50 * o.total then count_value else o.max_value end) as median_value,
MIN(case when d.accumulated >= .10 * o.total then count_value else o.max_value end) as p10_value,
MIN(case when d.accumulated >= .25 * o.total then count_value else o.max_value end) as p25_value,
MIN(case when d.accumulated >= .75 * o.total then count_value else o.max_value end) as p75_value,
MIN(case when d.accumulated >= .90 * o.total then count_value else o.max_value end) as p90_value
from aggData d
cross apply overallStats o
GROUP BY o.total, o.min_value, o.max_value, o.avg_value, o.stdev_value
;
这个查询取决于你的db支持窗口函数(包括ROWS UNBOUNDED precede)，但如果你没有，这是一个简单的事情，将aggData CTE与自身连接，并将所有先前的总数聚合到' cumulative '列，用于确定哪个值包含指定的预分词。上面的示例计算p10、p25、p50(中位数)、p75和p90。
