Медиана – среднее значение, которое определяют путем расположения чисел в возрастающем порядке и выбора числа, которое лежит посередине полученного порядка. Например, для чисел 10, 10, 11, 14, 18, 19, 22 медианой является число 14. Это информативный средний показатель, он сообщает, что ниже него находится столько же чисел, сколько и выше. Для населения мира медианный возраст равен 26. Это означает, что в мире проживает столько же людей моложе 26 лет, сколько и старше этого возраста, т. е. примерно по 3 млрд человек.
