Calculating the Median: Finding the Middle Value of Data Sets

The video tutorial explains the concept of median, a statistical measure representing the middle value of a data set. It covers manual methods for calculating the median in small data sets and introduces a formula for larger data sets. Examples are provided to illustrate both methods, including cases with odd and even numbers of data points. The tutorial concludes with a recap of key points and encourages practice.

Describe a scenario where the manual method of finding the median might be time-consuming.

Why do we add 1 to the total number of values when calculating the median?
