I have a database, db and in it a table, Table.
It looks somewhat like:
id | val
--------
1 | 45
2 | 35
3 | 23
4 | 49
5 | 67
6 | 12
7 | 0
8 | 87
9 | 46
(This is just an example data set. Actual data set is huge. And I need to work in least time possible.)
I need to find the median of the column val. Actually I need a php function to be used multiple times.
A similar question does exist: Simple way to calculate median with MySQL
I tried a few answers in this question, none of them worked for me. The accepted answer doesn't work since it used to work with an older version of SQL only.
PS: It should also work in the case of many duplicates.
