A single, extremely large value can affect the median more than the mean because One-half of all the data values will fall above the mode, and one-half will fall below the mode. In a data set, the mode will always be unique. The range and midrange are both measures of variation.
What else can I help you with?
When data includes a few extremely large or extremely small value it might be best to use a median value from the sample?
true
Which level of measurement is required for the median?
It can be computer for ordinal level data or higher. It is NOT effected by extremely large or small numbers
How the values of mean and median relate to shape?
The question is how do the mean and median affect the distribution shape. In a normal curve, the mean and median are both in the same point. ( as is the mode) If a distribution is skewed, its tail is either on the right or the left. If a distribution is skewed the median may be a better value to use than the mean since it has less effect on the shape. Also is there are large outliers, the median has less effect and is better to use. So the mean has a bigger effect on the shape many times than the median.

What can the difference between mean and median values infer. If the mean is 8 655.7 and the median -8 653.0?
First, I will give an example, similar to your question: -11000 -9000 +44000 mean = 8,000 and median = -9000. Symmetrical distributions after infinite sampling will show no difference in mean and median. Large differences are possible with small sample sizes even with symmetrical distributions. If the sample is large and the difference is large, this infers that the distribution is asymmetrical. The skewness of the distribution can be calculated.

Is median used for when there is a wide range of numbers?
If the wide range is evenly spread between the very small and the very large (the distribution is symmetric) then there is not much to choose between the median and the mean. If not, the median will have some advantages as a measure of central tendency.
