If you have read the math standard cover to cover, then on page 86 you would have found the definition of median:

Quote:Median. A measure of center in a set of numerical data. The median of a list of
values is the value appearing at the center of a sorted version of the list—or the
mean of the two central values, if the list contains an even number of values.
Example: For the data set {2, 3, 6, 7, 10, 12, 14, 15, 22, 90}, the median is 11.

Regrettably (if I am to believe this thread), the Prime calculator would say the median of that data set is 10, not 11. Every middle school math teacher in the United States would tell you that is wrong. Please tell me this will be fixed.
