public class Median
extends Quantile

Computes the median for a sorted input bag, using type R-2 estimation. This is a convenience wrapper around Quantile.

N.B., all the data is pushed to a single reducer per key, so make sure some partitioning is done (e.g., group by 'day') if the data is too large. That is, this isn't distributed median.
