Sorry to interrupt, guys, but when the data set contains an even number of elements, the median is the average of the two middle numbers....

So it was wrong? :(

Unfortunately. Don't worry, 123.go, that's how we all learn ^_^

Not to mention, you're supposed to have the user try to figure it out them self.. Not give them the answer. They could just take that answer and run away rather than learn how to really do it.

Okay... so, Jayden... care to rectify the answer?
What's the median?
