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。

试着这样做:
SELECT
CAST (AVG(val) AS DECIMAL(10,4))
FROM
(
SELECT
val,
ROW_NUMBER() OVER( ORDER BY val ) -1 AS rn,
COUNT(1) OVER () -1 AS cnt
FROM STATION
) as tmp
WHERE rn IN (FLOOR(cnt/2),CEILING (cnt/2))
**
注意:-1的原因是使它的索引为0 .i。E行号 现在从0开始，而不是1
**

我发现这个答案非常有用——https://www.eversql.com/how-to-calculate-median-value-in-mysql-using-a-simple-sql-query/
SET @rowindex := -1;
SELECT
AVG(g.grade)
FROM
(SELECT @rowindex:=@rowindex + 1 AS rowindex,
grades.grade AS grade
FROM grades
ORDER BY grades.grade) AS g
WHERE
g.rowindex IN (FLOOR(@rowindex / 2) , CEIL(@rowindex / 2));
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);
我使用下表的解决方案在MySQL:
CREATE TABLE transactions (
transaction_id int , user_id int , merchant_name varchar(255), transaction_date date , amount int
);
INSERT INTO transactions (transaction_id, user_id, merchant_name, transaction_date, amount)
VALUES (1, 1 ,'abc', '2015-08-17', 100),(2, 2, 'ced', '2015-2-17', 100),(3, 1, 'def', '2015-2-16', 121),
(4, 1 ,'ced', '2015-3-17', 110),(5, 1, 'ced', '2015-3-17', 150),(6, 2 ,'abc', '2015-4-17', 130),
(7, 3 ,'ced', '2015-12-17', 10),(8, 3 ,'abc', '2015-8-17', 100),(9, 2 ,'abc', '2015-12-17', 140),(10, 1,'abc', '2015-9-17', 100),
(11, 1 ,'abc', '2015-08-17', 121),(12, 2 ,'ced', '2015-12-23', 130),(13, 1 ,'def', '2015-12-23', 13),(3, 4, 'abc', '2015-2-16', 120),(3, 4, 'def', '2015-2-16', 121),(3, 4, 'ced', '2015-2-16', 121);
计算“金额”列的中位数:
WITH Numbered AS
(
SELECT *, COUNT(*) OVER () AS TotatRecords,
ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY amount) AS RowNum
FROM transactions
)
SELECT Avg(amount)
FROM Numbered
WHERE RowNum IN ( FLOOR((TotatRecords+1)/2), FLOOR((TotatRecords+2)/2) )
;
TotalRecords = 16 and Median = 120.5000
此查询将适用于两种情况，即偶数和奇数记录。
对于一个表站和列lat_n，下面是MySQL代码来获得中位数:
set @rows := (select count(1) from station);
set @v1 := 0;
set @sql1 := concat('select lat_n into @v1 from station order by lat_n asc limit 1 offset ', ceil(@rows/2) - 1);
prepare statement1 from @sql1;
execute statement1;
set @v2 := 0;
set @sql2 := concat('select lat_n into @v2 from station order by lat_n asc limit 1 offset ', ceil((@rows + 1)/2) - 1);
prepare statement2 from @sql2;
execute statement2;
select (@v1 + @v2)/2;
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。
