在SQL Server 2012中，您应该使用PERCENTILE_CONT:

SELECT SalesOrderID, OrderQty,
    PERCENTILE_CONT(0.5) 
        WITHIN GROUP (ORDER BY OrderQty)
        OVER (PARTITION BY SalesOrderID) AS MedianCont
FROM Sales.SalesOrderDetail
WHERE SalesOrderID IN (43670, 43669, 43667, 43663)
ORDER BY SalesOrderID DESC

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

以下解决方案在这些假设下有效:

无重复值 没有取消

代码:

IF OBJECT_ID('dbo.R', 'U') IS NOT NULL
  DROP TABLE dbo.R

CREATE TABLE R (
    A FLOAT NOT NULL);

INSERT INTO R VALUES (1);
INSERT INTO R VALUES (2);
INSERT INTO R VALUES (3);
INSERT INTO R VALUES (4);
INSERT INTO R VALUES (5);
INSERT INTO R VALUES (6);

-- Returns Median(R)
select SUM(A) / CAST(COUNT(A) AS FLOAT)
from R R1 
where ((select count(A) from R R2 where R1.A > R2.A) = 
      (select count(A) from R R2 where R1.A < R2.A)) OR
      ((select count(A) from R R2 where R1.A > R2.A) + 1 = 
      (select count(A) from R R2 where R1.A < R2.A)) OR
      ((select count(A) from R R2 where R1.A > R2.A) = 
      (select count(A) from R R2 where R1.A < R2.A) + 1) ; 

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;

简单、快速、准确

SELECT x.Amount 
FROM   (SELECT amount, 
               Count(1) OVER (partition BY 'A')        AS TotalRows, 
               Row_number() OVER (ORDER BY Amount ASC) AS AmountOrder 
        FROM   facttransaction ft) x 
WHERE  x.AmountOrder = Round(x.TotalRows / 2.0, 0)
