### Median of array of numbers
|
|
|
|
Find the middle of the array, use `Array.sort()` to sort the values.
|
|
Return the number at the midpoint if `length` is odd, otherwise the average of the two middle numbers.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
const median = arr => {
|
|
const mid = Math.floor(arr.length / 2), nums = arr.sort((a,b) => a - b);
|
|
return arr.length % 2 !== 0 ? nums[mid] : (nums[mid - 1] + nums[mid]) / 2;
|
|
}
|
|
// median([5,6,50,1,-5]) -> 5
|
|
// median([0,10,-2,7]) -> 3.5
|
|
```
