 * `math avg`: Finds the average of a list of numbers or tables
 * `math min`: Finds the minimum within a list of numbers or tables
 * `math max`: Finds the maximum within a list of numbers or tables
+* `math median`: Finds the median of a list of numbers or tables
 * `math sum`: Finds the sum of a list of numbers or tables
 
 However, the mathematical functions like `min` and `max` are more permissive and also work on `Dates`.
