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

I'm afraid that our Jira instance doesn't work that way-- all assignees are 
committers. Don't worry, we won't lose track of your contribution!

The PR machinery isn't part of Git, but of GitHub, so the easiest way for you 
to do this will be to go to GitHub. The UI there features easy-to-use screens 
that walk you through the process-- just start at your branch and let me know 
if you run into any problems!

> 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."
> DIVYA SPANDANA MARNEN, SPARQL-R: EXTENDED SPARQL FOR STATISTICAL COMPUTATIONS.
