Median: The median is the middle value in a set of numbers when arranged in order from smallest to largest. If there are an even number of numbers in the set, the median is the average of the two middle values.

Example: Consider the following set of numbers: 10, 15, 20, 25, 30. The median is 20, since it is the middle value in the set when arranged in order from smallest to largest.

Properties of Median:

The median is invariant under addition and subtraction.
The median is the same for all sets of numbers with the same number of elements.
If a set of numbers contains only one element, the median is that element.
If a set of numbers contains an odd number of elements, the median is the middle element.
If a set of numbers contains an even number of elements, the median is the average of the two middle elements
