Median
the midpoint of the data set
it is the median
It will increase the mean without affecting the median.
S={1,2,4,5,7}, the median is 4
The median in a set of data, would be the middle item of the data string... such as: 1,2,3,4,5,6,7 the Median of this set of data would be: 4
The median is the midpoint of the data set. So half the observations are greater than the median and half are smaller.

the midpoint of the data set
No, they must have a median. However, if the data set is of even order, the median may not belong to the data set. For example, the median of 1,2,3,10 is halfway between 2 and 3 or 2.5 which is not a data point.

The median, by definition, tells you the "half way point" of your data. Exactly half of the observations in the dataset will be less than the median and half will be greater than the median.
The median is advantageous because it is not influenced by extreme values, making it a robust measure of central tendency for skewed data sets. It is also easy to interpret and calculate. However, the median may not accurately represent the true center of a dataset if the data is heavily skewed or if there are outliers present. Additionally, the median may not be as efficient as the mean for certain statistical calculations due to its lack of sensitivity to all data points.

the median is the middle number in a set of data.
