Characteristics of the median

Median is not dependent on all the data values in a dataset. The median value is fixed by its position and is not reflected by the individual value. The distance between the median and the rest of the values is less than the distance from any other point. Every array has a single median.

Answer:

Median: The median is the middle value of the data set when the data is arranged in ranking order. It always lies at the center of the data set and not affected by the extreme values or outliers. For the calculation of median, the variable should be measured at least at the ordinal level.
