Python 3.4有statistics.median:

返回数值数据的中位数(中间值)。 当数据点数为奇数时，返回中间的数据点。 当数据点数为偶数时，通过取两个中间值的平均值来插值中位数: >>>中位数([1,3,5]) 3. >>>中位数([1,3,5,7]) 4.0

用法:

import statistics

items = [6, 1, 8, 2, 3]

statistics.median(items)
#>>> 3

它对类型也非常小心:

statistics.median(map(float, items))
#>>> 3.0

from decimal import Decimal
statistics.median(map(Decimal, items))
#>>> Decimal('3')

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)

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])

函数值:

def median(d):
    d=np.sort(d)
    n2=int(len(d)/2)
    r=n2%2
    if (r==0):
        med=d[n2] 
    else:
        med=(d[n2] + d[n2+1]) / 2
    return med

def median(x):
    x = sorted(x)
    listlength = len(x) 
    num = listlength//2
    if listlength%2==0:
        middlenum = (x[num]+x[num-1])/2
    else:
        middlenum = x[num]
    return middlenum
