## install

```

npm install --save atlas-median

```

## why

Breaking up [atlas-dataset](https://github.com/atlassubbed/atlas-dataset#readme) into standalone functions. This module computes the median value over an array of numbers:



  



## examples

#### unsorted array

The `median` function sorts the array in-place before taking the middle value. In the case of an even-length array, the median is the mean of the two middle values.

```javascript

const median = require("atlas-median")

console.log(median([4,3,1,2]))

// 2.5

```

#### sorted array

To avoid sorting a pre-sorted array, use a boolean flag:

```javascript

...

const isSorted = true;

console.log(median([1,2,3,4,5], isSorted)) // fast

// 3

```
