MEDIANCOLUMN |
Description Returns the median value from a column.
Syntax MEDIANCOLUMN(value, column1, column2, ...)
Value is the column from which you want to find the median value. Value can be a number or date column.
Column1, column2,... are up to 30 optional columns that define the aggregation context. The median value is returned for each unique combination of the group_by columns.
When the result of MEDIANCOLUMN is given as the final value for a new column in a transform worksheet, as in the example below, each row will get the value of MEDIANCOLUMN that corresponds to its particular aggregate values.
If no group_by columns are provided, the median value in the entire column is returned.
Example
In the following we see how MEDIANCOLUMN works with a numeric column and a single aggregation column. The calculated value is entered in each row.
