根据MSDN, Median在Transact-SQL中不能作为聚合函数使用。但是,我想知道是否可以创建此功能(使用create Aggregate函数、用户定义函数或其他方法)。

最好的方法(如果可能的话)是什么——允许在聚合查询中计算中值(假设是数值数据类型)?

以下是我的解决方案:

with tempa as

 (

    select value,row_number() over (order by value) as Rn,/* Assigning a 
                                                           row_number */
           count(value) over () as Cnt /*Taking total count of the values */
    from numbers
    where value is not null /* Excluding the null values */
 ),

tempb as

  (

    /* Since we don't know whether the number of rows is odd or even, we shall 
     consider both the scenarios */

    select round(cnt/2) as Ref from tempa where mod(cnt,2)=1
    union all
    select round(cnt/2) a Ref from tempa where mod(cnt,2)=0
     union all
    select round(cnt/2) + 1 as Ref from tempa where mod(cnt,2)=0
   )
  select avg(value) as Median_Value

  from tempa where rn in

    ( select Ref from tempb);

在UDF中,写:

 Select Top 1 medianSortColumn from Table T
  Where (Select Count(*) from Table
         Where MedianSortColumn <
           (Select Count(*) From Table) / 2)
  Order By medianSortColumn

这是我能想到的最简单的答案。我的数据处理得很好。如果你想排除某些值,只需在内部select中添加where子句。

SELECT TOP 1 
    ValueField AS MedianValue
FROM
    (SELECT TOP(SELECT COUNT(1)/2 FROM tTABLE)
        ValueField
    FROM 
        tTABLE
    ORDER BY 
        ValueField) A
ORDER BY
    ValueField DESC

在Jeff Atwood的答案的基础上,它是用GROUP BY和一个相关的子查询来获得每个组的中位数。

SELECT TestID, 
(
 (SELECT MAX(Score) FROM
   (SELECT TOP 50 PERCENT Score FROM Posts WHERE TestID = Posts_parent.TestID ORDER BY Score) AS BottomHalf)
 +
 (SELECT MIN(Score) FROM
   (SELECT TOP 50 PERCENT Score FROM Posts WHERE TestID = Posts_parent.TestID ORDER BY Score DESC) AS TopHalf)
) / 2 AS MedianScore,
AVG(Score) AS AvgScore, MIN(Score) AS MinScore, MAX(Score) AS MaxScore
FROM Posts_parent
GROUP BY Posts_parent.TestID

这段代码有点长,但很容易理解

medii是有列val的表,它有数据集, Smedi是一个cte,它将列idx作为行号,val作为medi表中的'val',该表是升序排序的。 这是基本的数学,如果行号是奇数,那么它的中值来自smedi。 当它是偶数时,它是中间两个值的平均值。

with smedi(idx,vals) as(
                select ROW_NUMBER() over(order by val),val from medi
                )
select (case
            when (select count(*) from medi)%2!=0 then (select vals from smedi where (((select count(*) from medi)/2))=idx)
            else (select avg(vals) from smedi where idx in ((select count(*)/2 from medi),(select (count(*)/2)+1 from medi)))
            end)

使用COUNT聚合, 首先可以计算有多少行,并存储在一个名为@cnt的变量中。然后 你可以计算OFFSET-FETCH过滤器的参数来指定,基于数量排序, 要跳过多少行(偏移值)和筛选多少行(获取值)。

行数 跳过是(@cnt - 1) / 2。很明显,对于奇数,这个计算是正确的,因为 首先对单个中间值减去1,然后再除以2。

这也适用于偶数计数,因为表达式中使用的除法是 整数除法;所以,当一个偶数减去1时,你得到的是一个奇数。

When dividing that odd value by 2, the fraction part of the result (.5) is truncated. The number of rows to fetch is 2 - (@cnt % 2). The idea is that when the count is odd the result of the modulo operation is 1, and you need to fetch 1 row. When the count is even the result of the modulo operation is 0, and you need to fetch 2 rows. By subtracting the 1 or 0 result of the modulo operation from 2, you get the desired 1 or 2, respectively. Finally, to compute the median quantity, take the one or two result quantities, and apply an average after converting the input integer value to a numeric one as follows:

DECLARE @cnt AS INT = (SELECT COUNT(*) FROM [Sales].[production].[stocks]);
SELECT AVG(1.0 * quantity) AS median
FROM ( SELECT quantity
FROM [Sales].[production].[stocks]
ORDER BY quantity
OFFSET (@cnt - 1) / 2 ROWS FETCH NEXT 2 - @cnt % 2 ROWS ONLY ) AS D;
