Return the median of a character vector

Usage

median_character(x, na.rm = TRUE, tie = c("lower", "upper"), ...)

Arguments

x: an object for which a method has been defined, or a numeric vector containing the values whose median is to be computed.
na.rm: a logical value indicating whether NA values should be stripped before the computation proceeds.
tie: Are ties broken using the upper or lower value?
...: Passed to `sort()`

Value

The median value of the vector

Details

As half-way between two values in a character vector is not defined, in the case of a median that would be between two values, either the lower or upper value is selected.
