Type the problem — numbers, a formula, or the loan fields.
Paste a list of numbers. Get the median with the middle values highlighted, plus mean, mode, range and a short explanation — no formula to memorise.
Separate with commas, spaces or new lines.

Sort the numbers from smallest to largest. The median is the value sitting in the middle of that row. If the count is odd, one number is exactly in the centre. If the count is even, there are two middle numbers — average them. That single rule is the whole definition.
A few extreme values barely move the median. They yank the mean. That is why journalists quote median income, median house price and median wait time: one billionaire in the room should not pretend everyone is rich.
The mean is the arithmetic average: add everything and divide by the count. Use it when every observation should pull equally — test scores, daily costs, rates. Use the median when the distribution is skewed or has outliers.
This page also reports the mode (the most frequent value), the range (max − min), quartiles, IQR and a Tukey fence for outliers. Geometric and harmonic means appear when every number is positive.
Numbers can be separated by commas, spaces, semicolons or new lines. A thousands separator like 1,200 is treated as twelve hundred. Scientific notation such as 2e-3 is kept. The statistic is computed in this tab; closing the tab discards the list.
No. Decimals are fine. Negative values are fine.
No. The median is computed in this browser tab.
That is an even count. The median is the arithmetic mean of those two middle values.
Values beyond Q1 − 1.5×IQR or Q3 + 1.5×IQR are marked. That is Tukey’s rule, not a law of nature.
