查看SQL中位数计算的其他解决方案: “用MySQL计算中位数的简单方法”(解决方案大多与供应商无关)。

在我的解决方案表中是一个只有分数列的学生表，我正在计算分数的中位数，这个解决方案是基于SQL server 2019的

with total_c as ( --Total_c CTE counts total number of rows in a table
    select count(*) as n from student
),
even as ( --Even CTE extract two middle rows if the number of rows are even
    select marks from student 
    order by marks 
    offset (select n from total_c)/2 -1 rows
    fetch next 2 rows only
),
odd as ( --Odd CTE extract middle row if the number of rows are odd
    select marks from student 
    order by marks 
    offset (select n + 1 from total_c)/2 -1 rows
    fetch next 1 rows only
    )
--Case statement helps to select odd or even CTE based on number of rows
select                                                        
case when n%2 = 0 then (select avg(cast(marks as float)) from even)
    else (select marks from odd)
end as med_marks
from total_c

如果你想在SQL Server中使用创建聚合函数，这是如何做到的。这样做的好处是能够编写干净的查询。注意，这个过程可以很容易地计算一个百分位值。

创建一个新的Visual Studio项目，并将目标框架设置为。net 3.5(这是针对SQL 2008的，在SQL 2012中可能有所不同)。然后创建一个类文件，并放入以下代码或c#等效代码:

Imports Microsoft.SqlServer.Server
Imports System.Data.SqlTypes
Imports System.IO

<Serializable>
<SqlUserDefinedAggregate(Format.UserDefined, IsInvariantToNulls:=True, IsInvariantToDuplicates:=False, _
  IsInvariantToOrder:=True, MaxByteSize:=-1, IsNullIfEmpty:=True)>
Public Class Median
  Implements IBinarySerialize
  Private _items As List(Of Decimal)

  Public Sub Init()
    _items = New List(Of Decimal)()
  End Sub

  Public Sub Accumulate(value As SqlDecimal)
    If Not value.IsNull Then
      _items.Add(value.Value)
    End If
  End Sub

  Public Sub Merge(other As Median)
    If other._items IsNot Nothing Then
      _items.AddRange(other._items)
    End If
  End Sub

  Public Function Terminate() As SqlDecimal
    If _items.Count <> 0 Then
      Dim result As Decimal
      _items = _items.OrderBy(Function(i) i).ToList()
      If _items.Count Mod 2 = 0 Then
        result = ((_items((_items.Count / 2) - 1)) + (_items(_items.Count / 2))) / 2@
      Else
        result = _items((_items.Count - 1) / 2)
      End If

      Return New SqlDecimal(result)
    Else
      Return New SqlDecimal()
    End If
  End Function

  Public Sub Read(r As BinaryReader) Implements IBinarySerialize.Read
    'deserialize it from a string
    Dim list = r.ReadString()
    _items = New List(Of Decimal)

    For Each value In list.Split(","c)
      Dim number As Decimal
      If Decimal.TryParse(value, number) Then
        _items.Add(number)
      End If
    Next

  End Sub

  Public Sub Write(w As BinaryWriter) Implements IBinarySerialize.Write
    'serialize the list to a string
    Dim list = ""

    For Each item In _items
      If list <> "" Then
        list += ","
      End If      
      list += item.ToString()
    Next
    w.Write(list)
  End Sub
End Class

然后编译它，并将DLL和PDB文件复制到您的SQL Server机器，在SQL Server中运行以下命令:

CREATE ASSEMBLY CustomAggregate FROM '{path to your DLL}'
WITH PERMISSION_SET=SAFE;
GO

CREATE AGGREGATE Median(@value decimal(9, 3))
RETURNS decimal(9, 3) 
EXTERNAL NAME [CustomAggregate].[{namespace of your DLL}.Median];
GO

然后你可以写一个查询来计算中位数，就像这样: SELECT dbo.Median(Field) FROM Table

我想自己想出一个解决办法，但我的大脑绊倒了。我觉得很管用，但别让我早上解释。: P

DECLARE @table AS TABLE
(
    Number int not null
);

insert into @table select 2;
insert into @table select 4;
insert into @table select 9;
insert into @table select 15;
insert into @table select 22;
insert into @table select 26;
insert into @table select 37;
insert into @table select 49;

DECLARE @Count AS INT
SELECT @Count = COUNT(*) FROM @table;

WITH MyResults(RowNo, Number) AS
(
    SELECT RowNo, Number FROM
        (SELECT ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY Number) AS RowNo, Number FROM @table) AS Foo
)
SELECT AVG(Number) FROM MyResults WHERE RowNo = (@Count+1)/2 OR RowNo = ((@Count+1)%2) * ((@Count+2)/2)

如果你使用的是SQL 2005或更好的版本，这是一个很好的，简单的中位数计算表中的单列:

SELECT
(
 (SELECT MAX(Score) FROM
   (SELECT TOP 50 PERCENT Score FROM Posts ORDER BY Score) AS BottomHalf)
 +
 (SELECT MIN(Score) FROM
   (SELECT TOP 50 PERCENT Score FROM Posts ORDER BY Score DESC) AS TopHalf)
) / 2 AS Median

试试下面的逻辑来找出中位数:

考虑一个包含以下数字的表格: 1、1、2、3、4、5所示

中位数是2.5

with tempa as 
(
    select num,count(num) over() as Cnt,
        row_number() over (order by num) as Rnum
    from temp),
tempb as
    (
        select round(cnt/2) as ref_value
        from tempa where mod(cnt,2)<>0
        union all
        select round(cnt/2) from tempa where mod(cnt,2)=0
        union all
        select round(cnt/2+1)
        from tempa where mod(cnt,2)=0
    )
select avg(num) from tempa
where rnum in (select * from tempb);
