It is a measure of central tendency, along with the mean and mode. The median is not affected by outliers, which are data points that are very different from the rest of the data.<\/p>\n<p>The mean is the average of the values in a dataset. It is calculated by adding all of the values and then dividing by the number of values. The mean is affected by outliers, so it is not always a good measure of central tendency.<\/p>\n<p>The mode is the most common value in a dataset. It is the value that occurs the most often.
