A. Soroka commented on JENA-1693:
---------------------------------

[~neumarcx] it looks like you are just ignoring IRIs and bnodes. I'm not sure 
that's the right choice here. If I remember correctly, out-of-domain values 
should throw an error and eliminate that group from the solution set. 
([~andy.seaborne] is that right?) Is there some particular reason that you 
needed to ignore them instead, and would a design that errors out instead be 
useful for you?

> As briefly mentioned to Andy Seaborne I'd like to see the aggregate function 
> MEDIAN in the ARQ SPARQL syntax. 
> "Median is the value that separates lower half from the higher half when the 
> values are ordered in ascending or descending order. It is the middle value 
> in a given dataset. Medians are helpful in understanding the distribution of 
> data. This can be done by comparing mean and median values. By observing the 
> difference between these values we can understand whether the data is left 
> skewed or right skewed. The formula for median is: Median = ((n + 1)/2) th 
> number in the series where the numbers are ordered. Here, n denotes the 
> number of values for the given variable."
