在Python中如何找到列表的中值?列表可以是任意大小的，并且数字不保证是任何特定的顺序。
如果列表包含偶数个元素，则函数应返回中间两个元素的平均值。
以下是一些例子(为了便于展示，进行了排序):
median([1]) == 1
median([1, 1]) == 1
median([1, 1, 2, 4]) == 1.5
median([0, 2, 5, 6, 8, 9, 9]) == 6
median([0, 0, 0, 0, 4, 4, 6, 8]) == 2

一个返回给定列表中值的简单函数:
def median(lst):
lst = sorted(lst) # Sort the list first
if len(lst) % 2 == 0: # Checking if the length is even
# Applying formula which is sum of middle two divided by 2
return (lst[len(lst) // 2] + lst[(len(lst) - 1) // 2]) / 2
else:
# If length is odd then get middle value
return lst[len(lst) // 2]
一些关于中值函数的例子:
>>> median([9, 12, 20, 21, 34, 80]) # Even
20.5
>>> median([9, 12, 80, 21, 34]) # Odd
21
如果你想使用库，你可以简单地做:
>>> import statistics
>>> statistics.median([9, 12, 20, 21, 34, 80]) # Even
20.5
>>> statistics.median([9, 12, 80, 21, 34]) # Odd
21

def midme(list1):
list1.sort()
if len(list1)%2>0:
x = list1[int((len(list1)/2))]
else:
x = ((list1[int((len(list1)/2))-1])+(list1[int(((len(list1)/2)))]))/2
return x
midme([4,5,1,7,2])
当然，你可以使用内置函数，但如果你想创建自己的函数，你可以这样做。这里的技巧是使用~运算符将正数转换为负数。例如~2 -> -3和在Python中使用负in For list将从末尾开始计数。如果你有mid == 2，那么它会从开始取第三个元素，从结束取第三个元素。
def median(data):
data.sort()
mid = len(data) // 2
return (data[mid] + data[~mid]) / 2
这很简单;
def median(alist):
#to find median you will have to sort the list first
sList = sorted(alist)
first = 0
last = len(sList)-1
midpoint = (first + last)//2
return midpoint
你可以这样使用返回值median = median(anyList)
下面是不使用中值函数就能找到中值的乏味方法:
def median(*arg):
order(arg)
numArg = len(arg)
half = int(numArg/2)
if numArg/2 ==half:
print((arg[half-1]+arg[half])/2)
else:
print(int(arg[half]))
def order(tup):
ordered = [tup[i] for i in range(len(tup))]
test(ordered)
while(test(ordered)):
test(ordered)
print(ordered)
def test(ordered):
whileloop = 0
for i in range(len(ordered)-1):
print(i)
if (ordered[i]>ordered[i+1]):
print(str(ordered[i]) + ' is greater than ' + str(ordered[i+1]))
original = ordered[i+1]
ordered[i+1]=ordered[i]
ordered[i]=original
whileloop = 1 #run the loop again if you had to switch values
return whileloop
def median(array):
"""Calculate median of the given list.
"""
# TODO: use statistics.median in Python 3
array = sorted(array)
half, odd = divmod(len(array), 2)
if odd:
return array[half]
return (array[half - 1] + array[half]) / 2.0
