How to calculate the median of an array?

Question

I\'m trying to calculate the total, mean and median of an array thats populated by input received by a textfield. I\'ve managed to work out the total and the mean, I just ca

Answer 1

Arrays.sort(numArray);
int middle = ((numArray.length) / 2);
if(numArray.length % 2 == 0){
 int medianA = numArray[middle];
 int medianB = numArray[middle-1];
 median = (medianA + medianB) / 2;
} else{
 median = numArray[middle + 1];
}

EDIT: I initially had medianB setting to middle+1 in the even length arrays, this was wrong due to arrays starting count at 0. I have updated it to use middle-1 which is correct and should work properly for an array with an even length.
