                 Key: CORE-5584
                 URL: http://tracker.firebirdsql.org/browse/CORE-5584
             Project: Firebird Core
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Engine
            Reporter: Pavel Zotov
            Priority: Minor


Please consider to implement aggregate function MEDIAN() which can be very 
useful when we want to evaluate 'most typical' value from set which does 
contain several values with big deviation: {  12, 13, 11, 14, 11, 11, 11, 12,  
9999, 1, 12,13, 13 } ==> median = 12 (compare with average = 779.46).

PS. Oracle has this function since 10g.
