Tell us what’s happening:
Describe your issue in detail here.
If array.length
is even, pass an array with the two middle numbers from the sorted
array to the getMean
function. The first item in the array argument should be the value at index array.length / 2
from sorted
and the second should use the value at the index array.length / 2 - 1
from sorted
