Re: [Metastockusers] How to calculate this ?

Hi,

I would like to know if it is possible with Mestatock to calculate a median
(statistically speaking) :

The median is the middle number (value) in any given set of numbers (values)
:

For example :

A set of values :

 20 45 10 3 90 19

1) We have to classify (rising order) these values : so

3 10 19 20 45 90

2) Because we have an even set of numbers ( 6 values) :

We take the value 19 and the value 20 :

(19+20)/2 = 19.5 = MEDIAN

3) for an odd set of numbers

Let's take the same set of numbers but with 5 values (odd number) :

20 45 10 3 90

We classify :

3 10 20 45 90

MEDIAN = 20 (the number which divides in two the set of numbers)


Is it possible to do the same thing thing with Metastock (I would like to do
it with 100 values) ?

Any help appreciated,

Regards,

Karile
