gollark: Nope, that's the formula for a mean.
gollark: That is the mean for discrete things. The median would be the middle one if you put them all in sorted order.
gollark: If you just have a giant list of measurements from a random thing, add them up and divide by the number of measurements you have.
gollark: =tex \int_{-\infty}^{\infty} x f(x) dx
