不幸的是，无论是TheJacobTaylor还是velcrow的答案都不会返回当前版本MySQL的准确结果。

从上面来看，魔术贴的答案是接近的，但它不能正确计算具有偶数行数的结果集。中位数定义为1)奇数集上的中间数，或2)偶数集上两个中间数的平均值。

所以，这里是魔术贴的解决方案修补处理奇数和偶数集:

SELECT AVG(middle_values) AS 'median' FROM (
  SELECT t1.median_column AS 'middle_values' FROM
    (
      SELECT @row:=@row+1 as `row`, x.median_column
      FROM median_table AS x, (SELECT @row:=0) AS r
      WHERE 1
      -- put some where clause here
      ORDER BY x.median_column
    ) AS t1,
    (
      SELECT COUNT(*) as 'count'
      FROM median_table x
      WHERE 1
      -- put same where clause here
    ) AS t2
    -- the following condition will return 1 record for odd number sets, or 2 records for even number sets.
    WHERE t1.row >= t2.count/2 and t1.row <= ((t2.count/2) +1)) AS t3;

要使用它，请遵循以下3个简单步骤:

将上面代码中的“median_table”(出现2次)替换为您的表名 将“median_column”(3次)替换为您希望为其查找中位数的列名 如果你有一个WHERE条件，用WHERE条件替换“WHERE 1”(2次)

SELECT 
    SUBSTRING_INDEX(
        SUBSTRING_INDEX(
            GROUP_CONCAT(field ORDER BY field),
            ',',
            ((
                ROUND(
                    LENGTH(GROUP_CONCAT(field)) - 
                    LENGTH(
                        REPLACE(
                            GROUP_CONCAT(field),
                            ',',
                            ''
                        )
                    )
                ) / 2) + 1
            )),
            ',',
            -1
        )
FROM
    table

上面的方法似乎对我有用。

我刚刚在网上的评论中找到了另一个答案:

对于几乎所有SQL中的中位数: SELECT x.val from data x, data y GROUP BY x.val 总和(符号(1-SIGN (y.val-x.val))) = (COUNT (*) + 1) / 2

确保列有良好的索引，并且索引用于筛选和排序。与解释计划核对。

select count(*) from table --find the number of rows

计算“中值”行号。可能使用:median_row = floor(count / 2)。

然后把它从列表中挑出来:

select val from table order by val asc limit median_row,1

这将返回您想要的值的一行。

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。

屁股的

set @r = 0;

select  
    case when mod(c,2)=0 then round(sum(lat_N),4)
    else round(sum(lat_N)/2,4) 
    end as Med  
from 
    (select lat_N, @r := @r+1, @r as id from station order by lat_N) A
    cross join
    (select (count(1)+1)/2 as c from station) B
where id >= floor(c) and id <=ceil(c)

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);
