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。

如果MySQL有ROW_NUMBER，那么MEDIAN是(受SQL Server查询的启发):
WITH Numbered AS
(
SELECT *, COUNT(*) OVER () AS Cnt,
ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY val) AS RowNum
FROM yourtable
)
SELECT id, val
FROM Numbered
WHERE RowNum IN ((Cnt+1)/2, (Cnt+2)/2)
;
如果您有偶数个条目，则使用IN。
如果你想找到每个组的中位数，那么只需要在你的OVER子句中PARTITION BY组。

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);
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。
根据魔术贴的答案，对于那些必须根据另一个参数分组的东西做中位数的人来说
SELECT grp_field, t1。val FROM ( SELECT grp_field， @rownum:=IF(@s = grp_field， @rownum + 1,0) AS row_number， @s:=IF(@s = grp_field， @s, grp_field) AS sec, d.val FROM data d， (SELECT @rownum:=0， @s:=0 ORDER BY grp_field, d.val )作为t1 JOIN ( SELECT grp_field, count(*)为total_rows 数据d GROUP BY grp_field )为t2 在t1。Grp_field = t2.grp_field 在t1.row_number =地板(total_rows / 2) + 1;
你也可以选择在存储过程中这样做:
DROP PROCEDURE IF EXISTS median;
DELIMITER //
CREATE PROCEDURE median (table_name VARCHAR(255), column_name VARCHAR(255), where_clause VARCHAR(255))
BEGIN
-- Set default parameters
IF where_clause IS NULL OR where_clause = '' THEN
SET where_clause = 1;
END IF;
-- Prepare statement
SET @sql = CONCAT(
"SELECT AVG(middle_values) AS 'median' FROM (
SELECT t1.", column_name, " AS 'middle_values' FROM
(
SELECT @row:=@row+1 as `row`, x.", column_name, "
FROM ", table_name," AS x, (SELECT @row:=0) AS r
WHERE ", where_clause, " ORDER BY x.", column_name, "
) AS t1,
(
SELECT COUNT(*) as 'count'
FROM ", table_name, " x
WHERE ", where_clause, "
) 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
");
-- Execute statement
PREPARE stmt FROM @sql;
EXECUTE stmt;
END//
DELIMITER ;
-- Sample usage:
-- median(table_name, column_name, where_condition);
CALL median('products', 'price', NULL);
