A technique for estimating population medians with minimal data is explored, drawing from Douglas Hubbard's "How to Measure Anything." The method leverages the probability that a set of independent samples will all fall above or below the population median. By calculating the complement probability, it's possible to determine the likelihood that the median lies within the range of the sampled data. AI
